I have now heard myself speak this several times to others and while stuck in "my" Egypt, it seemed only a 'fantasy'. Now, it seems within the realm of possibility and "why not?" Why not start working on a doctorate in art education, when Sarah graduates from high school? Why not be prepared to accept a college/ university position hoping to share what I've learned with the next generation of art educators? Why not be open to the fact that it could take me to a whole different geographical location, possibly back to Hawaii or maybe just across the border into South Carolina?
Why not believe and act on the possibility that the last years of my life might in fact be the best and happiest years of my life? Why not accept that if God wills it, and I am willing to do the work to achieve it all optimum outcomes are within the realm of possibility?
It seems foolish perhaps in the natural, "at your age" etc... but I believe if God planted the notion in my heart and makes the way open, then I will follow that dream. It will not be from listening to the voices, others or my own, that speak discouragement.
