Living in Fear

Once again, life got in the way, and I neglected the blog for several months. That's okay. I'll start from right now.

I had a facebook post recently about the things people complain about. It's a pet peeve. I understand life's little annoyances, but a little perspective is never a bad thing. My family is in the best place it's been yet as far as general life stuff. School, work, family, home, health, it's all fantastic. I am beyond grateful for all of this. This is the stuff that matters.

However, this is also a terrible time for us. I wonder what it's like to NOT have to live in fear. I wonder what it's like to be able to share pictures of your family and joyous occasions on social media sites. I wonder what it's like to not have to look over your shoulder everywhere you go. There's someone who wishes us harm, who's trying to find us. And he's close. I don't want to go into more detail right now. I'm just trying to be strong.
