...and then I cried

I've been thinking about going back to school ever since I moved back to my old university to work. They have a great "returning student" program designed for people who quit school a long time ago. I qualify. It's a nice way of saying the program is for old(er) folks who didn't get to finish what they'd started. I qualify. Back in the day when I was 22 years old, my goal was to get married and have kids. I qualified. And today was the day I sat with the program advisor and with great deep breaths, decided to go back. If I go full time, it'll take 1.5 years. If not, it'll take much longer. I've not talked to financial aide, but just the decision to go back has me in the Brain Game of "what ifs". What if I don't make the grades, what if I have such a huge school bill, my life insurance policy will have to pay it off... what if, what if. So, like any sweet, insightful sister would, when I told Ruthie, she said all the right things to get my head straight, kind of a verbal pat on the butt, "You'll do fine. Bills will get paid..." Then she said, go look at the video I posted. It's about a dream....
Yesterday, I needed a laugh, today I had a healthy, good-for-me cry. Enjoy!
God is good....I love Him.
