New Beginnings

The next chapter has begun. After 11 months of global wanderings and 6 months of re-finding my place in California, I'm following my heart and what feels so absolutely right...I'm moving to Charlottetown, PEI to be with Vibhu. His presence makes my heart flutter and sing. His voice brings a sense of reassurance and calm. He loves me so deeply, so purely, and despite the fiercely independent woman in me, I have taken a blind leap of faith and am moving 4,000 miles away from home to be with him. I have no job waiting, only $50 to my name, and no more possessions than those in a handful of boxes. I bring with me credit card debt, student loans, and an expensive promise of education and athletic support to girls in Tanzania. But he doesn't seem to care. All he wants is to love and care for me, grow old with me, and explore the world with me. I can't imagine a better feeling than being in a loving partnership with a person who thinks I'm perfect just the way I am.
