I like boundaries. I like being on time. I like knowing what is going on. I like answers that are black and white.
However, I am learning to be OK with grey because wanting black and white only creates frustration.
We have spent more than a month on our little farm in Uruguay and I am looking back on my worries about buying this place and moving. I can still find reasons to question the move but more often than not I forget that I should question it.
Situations I would never have let occur while living in the US happen all the time and I am enjoying not taking action and just watching them play out. Generally I am pleasantly surprised that things get done before I expect them to be done—Uruguay is good that way.
Never in my life have I felt less in-charge. Never in my life have I felt as relaxed.
I feel as if a story has been written that includes us in the cast of characters. Since I am just a character I have no effect on the script. It is not a mini-series, just a 1 hour episode that will be tied up nicely by the final commercial break.
I am pretty sure it has a happy ending.
