Breakneck Speed

It has been just over a year since I typed the last entry in this journal, and that takes my breath away. I remember so clearly what it was like to write that last entry, and the fact that a year - 1/80th of my life expectancy - has passed between now and then is too much for me to really take in.

So, life is going by faster than I had planned on.

The big changes I've experienced are these:

1) I'm more in love with Holly than ever, and we've grown through the hard times.
2) I am an engineer now, and have real responsibilities in this job.
3) Holly and I live in a new city, and a new state, and attend a new church.
4) Little Zorro the mouse has passed on, and we've taken in two hilarious dogs.
5) Time is moving even faster than before.

It feels like just a few days ago that I flew to Houston to interview with my current employer (it was 6 1/2 months ago).

I just don't know what to do with this thought, other than trust God more. None of us lasts that long. None of us will find real safety, security, or fulfillment here, apart from in God.

The real safety that I want is timeless - hallelujah.
