making it happen

i have taken many trips to mt. baldy this winter. however last monday was the trip to end all further hiking adventures for a while. Two people sharing a sled came down the mountain and nailed me. By midnight that evening i was checking out of the ER with a concussion information packet and an empty stomach. thank God for my fiance Chris who was there with me through the whole thing. so, today i sit here, with a headache i might add, still recovering from last weeks random accident.
in other area's of my life: i have mountains to say concerning Chris and the fact that he has EMT finals coming up. And lets not forget, his LAFD test this month also. I am so happy for him. Happy is not the word. maybe excited. proud. thrilled. eager. anxious. or estatic! I guess happy is part of it. im not sure of what exactly i've been feeling these past couple days and weeks but i know i've got to deliver these feelings in a package that says "support" and "love". You see, i love Chris more than anything in this world. He's my everything. and i know how big this is for him. i know the excitment and the pressure he feels when it comes to passing these tests. i know because his dream to become a great leader within the fire department, is no longer his dream. but OUR dream. i love him and take on everything that he loves...and desires. especially when it comes to his dream job. i pray for him and pray that he has faith, hope, and peace concerning these test. "faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." hoping for Chris' new job, believing in the job for him, because it already exist. Downside to all of this is that i don't get to see him as much because of all the neccessary studying. It's bitter sweet. He has to study hard to pass. alone. and I miss him.

Quote of the day: "wherever we been, i can tell you where we're going..."
