Another step

Took another step in the journey to my new life. Got to go back and spend time at work at a reception with the frontline to say good bye (got two great gifts too, thanks!!). What a great day, I really enjoyed seeing everyone and hearing the comments on how in a small way I made a difference, most comments were not about by being their leader but what I brought as a person to them. I have to say it was a little strange going to the airport and going into the terminal and offices especially dressed in shorts and flip flops. For the first time I didn't feel attached to it and that I was just a vistor in a strange land especially when I turned in my badges . Interesting how the world keeps moving and doesn't skip a beat when your gone. Again,I will miss the tremendous people but I won't miss the stress and time trap that it had become. So many people asked me what I'm doing next? I got some interesting looks when I said I had nothing planned and that I was going to take some time off. I told Jodi I still feel like this is just a vacation, I think it will all hit when we actually leave here and there will be some range of emotions that I will go through. I won't lie I think there will be some rough patches and that my focus has to remain on him and the true plan for my life. I think as I get away from it my mind only wants to remember the good parts and I'm doing a brain dump of the negative junk, maybe it is just my positive nature in always looking at the postive of every situation? Anyway, we can close another chapter in the "book of my past" and turn the page to that blank sheet in the "book of Mike Wanner's life" and see what the good lord plans to write on it, now that's exciting!! Now back to my beach bum life....well it the darn sun would ever come out, June gloom in full effect in So Cal. A a side note I have go over the 500 mark in views to the blog in three days, God is amazing in how he reaches out to people. If you feel compelled share the link with others, have a blessed day!!!
