Travels: Nearly completed.

I am fairly exhausted, so I will make this brief. This is my final night on the road. By tomorrow evening, I will be in Virginia, starting a completely new chapter in my journey across the continent. Although I am sometimes close to being overwhelmed by my self doubt and insecurities, my small failures and my lapses in judgement, I will continue to take comfort in two things.

First, even when I fall hard, God has said it's alright to stand back up again, and even gives a hand up.

Second, I have a wonderful girl who supports me and believes in me. And more importantly, who will love me even when I fall, so that I am not afraid to sometimes take risks and try new things. Even when they don't work out, she cheers me on, either to try again or try the next thing. And for that, I am grateful both to her and to God for creating her.

Actually, there's a third group I want to be thankful to. I want to thank all my friends who have supported me and challenged me on my spiritual walk. I love you all, too.

Anyhow, I guess it really is true. One journey's end is another's beginning.

Sincerely cliched,

RRK

I am glad you made it there safely. I can't believe you are already at work. You are missed and loved greatly.
