I am one of those people who can get lost leaving her neighborhood. I have lived in my neighborhood for about two thirds of my life. So its kind of pathetic that I get lost so easily. It use to really bother me. My father was a truck driver for goodness sake. I am sure he was pretty embarrassed that I never learned anything from him about not getting lost. Fortunately I married a man who loves to read maps. was in the military and never gets lost. When we first got married he thought it was kind of funny, I think he thought that he could teach me and all would be fine. Boy was he wrong. After 27 years of marriage I think hes come to realize I am a lost cause and he probably fears one day I will venture out past our city limits never to be seen again. Getting lost all the time actually has it plus side. I see things I never intended. I get to meet new people when I have to ask for direction and I assume that I am going to get lost so it never flusters me. As my my husband and I make the transition from having school age children to having college kids who dont need us as much its kind of scary. I am feeling a little lost in life as well. But I know it will be fine. As I transition from a stay at home mom to whatever it was I wanted to be when I grew up I know that I am going to get lost along the way, I am excited about the new places I am going to see even if its on accident and even more excited about the new people I get to meet who have to point me in the right direction. Dont fear change or getting lost, enjoy the journey. Lots of Love Mrs Ladybug
