The Move - The Choice - 1st Part of 3

Lately, this has been Us.

The Move - The Choice - The Secret - Work

This has definitely been Us. Lately, we have felt trapped in a subway station... Cars zooming in all directions... but which one? Which one is for us? Which car will take us to our destination? What is our destination?

A few months ago we would not have thought all this possible, probable, or even a hopeful situation. If you had told me on New Year's Eve what would be coming in our 2017 care package - I would have hugged onto 2016 for all it was worth. (Which... don't worry.. it packed its wallops as well)

And then... Opportunity!

Sometimes the BEST OPPORTUNITIES- ~~SEEM LIKE THE BIGGEST F-UP THAT EVER HAPPENED.~~ Lol.. Having an "Alf" Moment here.... "I Kill Me... Hahahahaha" - Okay, now thats over lets get back to it.

It took Milton Hershey several tries before he ever got the Hershey's Kiss down..... But the main thing is he told himself... "I am not a FAILURE" - "I Can Do This" - and this is what we are instilling in Piritto and ourselves. For what models are we for her.... if we are thinking ourselves "failures" and never accepting that "failure" can in that Eureaka! Moment.... Change the world. Change your world. Change your View.

It took a long time before I realized the Universe is not "Throwing Rocks Up My Sysphean Hill"( is what I used to call it... ) But - if we can train ourselves to rethink, re-love, re-write, refill that bottle with milk after you just poured hot coffee in the bottle and on yourself at 3am... - If we can just put a smile on our face and say to ourselves... "You know what, Fuck You, Coffee Pot, lets get on to the NEXT THING!"

And Ladies and Gentlemen - The "Next Big Thing" is not giving in to the things trying to pull us down and fill us with unhappy thoughts... but try and see what it is the Universe is actually telling us. Maybe it is telling us to "Go"... for some it will be "stay".... Or "take care of your plant because it's almost dead".... and - REMEMBER, Above all else... The Light of The Universe Loves and Envelopes Us All.

The Change And Along Comes "The Choice"

Let me back up just a mili-second here... I have just completed my Culinary Program at school, and have an Entrepreneurship Certificate. But let's be real... Ever since our beautiful slice of, Pie, came into the world the most we have really been able to fit into our lives is Pie and School.

Our slice of, Pie, is now bigger.. in so many ways. She has grown into a beautiful toddler whom everyone adores.

And Now She Shoots Up Like A Weed

And so you see? Maybe we have outgrown our own surroundings. Maybe we have become fish in need of a new pond. And that is what we are setting about to do.

We knew we were changing, just like the weather changes and love changes, and everything... changes... That of course will never stop. The sooner we accept nothing stays the same the better off we are.

As we've been raising our beautiful daughter and appreciating our beautiful Ocean.. it seems our tank has outgrown us.

Or Maybe We Are Too Big? (Chicken or Egg there)

Ahhh... there. Now we have it. An actual decision. A decision that we must pack up our Kitty Ears and go somewhere that has *gasp* seasons! We had Grand Plans for this place...

(still do, and this should be helping us move towards our dreams and not away) and so we are finding it difficult to pack the last dish.... put away the last toy.... donate the last box.... Oh, it's happening.. It's definitely happening.

We have Accepted what the Universe is presenting to us. Either stay and accept insanity in a beautiful place... or GO, GO, GO - and try to find peace in our surroundings elsewhere.

Kitty Ears is on board the - Let Us Get To Somewhere New Train

Alyce Says - Anywhere Is Better (But lets open our minds here)

Pie Wonders - If The Dog, The Cat, The Duck and Mama and Dada are all Going To The Same Place

And the answer is "Yes, My Dearest, Pie. We are setting our sights on new surroundings, popping in our favorite Shawn Mullins CD, and hitting the road. For wherever WE are - that is your home. Wherever your family is - there is your peace. When all the bills are paid and we are snuggled into bed watching our Netflix and Hulu that is a bit of our security blanket (~~cuz fuck cable.. REALLY)~~ - THIS - this - this... is where memories are made and dreams really come from.

For FAMILY will always be the most important thing.

As long as you've got Us, you've got someone babe! We love you Infinitely and that has been the crux of hard decision making. Making the right decisions for you, our beautiful child. Mama could live in the Arctic, and Dada could live in the Bahamas, but nothing in the world would ever be right without you."

And so - Once we've prioritized the needs of the Growing Slice Of Pie Vs. Our Own Selfish and Shallow Needs - Pie comes first, always and forever.

We realize: BE HERE NOW

"Goodbye," said the fox. "And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."
— Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

While we may be physically relocating to a different shore.. There is still water (there is not a place on Earth that can keep us from water. Whether it be Ocean, Lake, Pond, or River - You will find us there.)
