Over Thanksgiving, I travelled down to Ambergris Caye, Belize to hang out with my dad and sister. It was so beautiful....we night snorkeled, fished off the boat, trolled out in the ocean, dove in the reef, ate lots of lobster. It was so wonderful. I learned how to clean out conch and make ceviche.
One night on our way home from fishing, we tried a new route through the back of the island, but we couldn't find the inlet back to our house so we searched for lights onshore that might seem familiar to us...as I looked over the silohuette of the town and different lights that marked different places in town, I thought of how many times in life we find ourselves coming on a new route in uncertain water, looking for the way home. The answer was in remembering the past and where we came from, and what we already knew, it is because of those markers in life that we can always find our way home.
I'm back in Orlando now, and getting ready for a half marathon this weekend! I ran 10 miles and feeling like 13 might be a bit much- we'll see.
Great peace have they who love your law and nothing can make them stumble. -David
