New Blog Format Comming Soon

Ok, so to be clear, this blog was created to invite my close friends and family into our lives. In a way to get a cookie from the cookie bowl of our lives and enjoy a small portion of what we enjoy daily. hahaha. Truly I started this blog to give a small window view into the month to month world that we are experiencing as we struggle to do what most would consider unthinkable; to leave an entire world with a certain paycheck for another that is healthier, cleaner and the paycheck may be smaller. It seems crazy until you sit down and look at the big picture.

I believe each of us were created with the chance to make something great of our lives and live in it. Don't misunderstand that last sentence. "Something great" in the past could be something as big as discovering that the world was round. Could have been finding the cure to some terrible disease that killed many that you love. It could have been moving out into the unknown with the ones you love to discover what lies beyond and make an exciting and wonderful life and the start of some small legacy that your future will unfold to those that it matters to. For me, I believe that I need more in life for me and for my family. I also believe that to obtain that, we need to seek less.

For those of you who are christian and believe as I do that you were created by one God that loves you and wants you to seek your life as he understands it to be, this will be easier for you to understand. For those of you who are not, I can only say that each of us depend on too many things that are made by someone else and without those things we would no longer be able to function and would shut down just as your computer or your iphone shut down when you no longer provide the power for it to work.

In short, I believe we depend on too much. My goal in the coming years is to learn to do more on my own and share this adventure with my family. It will be a simple change at first but a change none the less towards becoming less stressed in life.

The format of this blog will change in the very soon future into something else. We will be moving soon and our new life will be starting. We will be starting fresh and new and so will this blog.

Stay tuned. Its going to be fun.
