Without a roadmap.

Things come along in life that are unexpected and, we will find ourselves at a crossroad. Afraid. Confused. Without a roadmap. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. Of course, when faced with the unknown, most of us would rather turn around and go back. . But once in awhile people push on to something better-something found just beyond the pain of going at it alone and just beyond the bravery and courage it takes to let someone in. Or to give someone a second chance. Something beyond the quiet persistence of a dream. Because it's only when you're tested that you discover who you truly are. And it's only when you're tested that you discover who you can be. The person you want to be does exist, somewhere on the other side of hard work, faith and belief, and beyond heartache and fear of what lies ahead. -One Tree Hill

  1. More pics more pics more pics! Now listen... Sam and I will probably be headed to Phoenix for a week or so this summer and I expect you to throw us a huge party! Do you hear me, Dana? A HUGE party. No, but seriously. I need to see you, on the double! SO, I will be keeping you posted, sister.

  2. Dana! I love this post! What a great message. It's so true. Father in Heaven really does mold and shape our character through challenges in this life. You can never really understand it either while you're in the midst of it all. Ps I agree with Nessa though we need more pictures!
