I miss you my storm boy! You have had quite a rite of passage into becoming your own person in these last months. Today was just one more story of initiation to end this first chapter. I was up hours before sunrise this morning so that I could go to Victoria to pick you up from university. Over two slippery hours of challenging driving later, I was back at home without you! All the morning ferries were cancelled and it was difficult to even navigate the local streets. I was disappointed and felt disconnected but shifted my day and had some other good connections. Life is often full of unexpected storms and challenges. Within the storms of our life passages, things are not always how they first appear. Keep on paddling, waiting for the way forward to open up. Watch carefully for the unexpected. Enjoy the adventure of surprises in each day. Many of us may feel like we are paddling under water these days! Look out for what you can learn and who else you can meet under that strange sky! Maybe tomorrow will return you back home to us here. I look forward to hearing of the unique adventures of your day in the storm! May God continue to lead and guide you in ways unexpected. Watch out for those saving killer whales that He sends to care for you along the way.
