My brilliant husband said this today (or something close to
it):  a better approach to enjoying any
relationship, especially marriage, would be to “let it work,” rather than to  “make
it work.”  I love that!
I generally say no before I say yes.  
Today we are between Thanksgivings.  Yesterday was his family; tomorrow is my
family.  And believe it or not, really,
really great folks come to both!  Lucky
me.
So UT and the Aggies are getting a divorce after all these
years of squabbling.  I think the UT band
showed us the absolute best way to bring closure to any divorce:  thank the other party from your heart, and
move on.
When my 90-year-old mom decides to cross over the divide, I
will lose one of the most amazing teachers I have known.  If you like anything about me, you should
send her a thank you note.
Here is what’s true for me today:  I crave and fear change.  I stir things up and pray for peace.  I push when I should wait.  I wait when I should push through.  I contradict myself almost daily.  I think 
Life is fascinating.
I am thankful for a friend who tries harder than anyone I've ever known to understand Truth and speak It with gusto. You are a treasure to me.
