If only it were that easy. If only we could just pack a bag, hop a plane, and a day or so later be half a world away from our troubles. If only those troubles wouldn't follow us, but would stay right here, waiting. If that were the case, I'd be on a plane tomorrow!
If only we could just focus on grieving, on making it through one day at a time. If only life didn't intervene, and make everything just a little more complicated. Unfortunately, that's the way life is. Life goes on, it doesn't stop just because you've had a catastrophic event. So that being the case, perhaps I won't move to Australia after all...perhaps I'll stay here, and continue to focus on making it through one day at a time, until the time comes when I find myself able to focus on a little bit more...then a little bit more...and then until the time when I feel like a whole person again. It will take a little longer than a trip to Australia, but it will be worth it in the end.
