We aimed Lucy to Sarasota FL so Ron could reconnect with friends from his early 20’s, when they all lived in Fairbanks AK.
To me those meetups this year are always interesting as of course they are all strangers to me. I am just the sidekick who thinks I get to sit back and relax and watch the reconnection being made.
At each meetup, however, I was embraced with kindness and made felt included even if that wasn’t a necessity at all.
This time however it was surprisingly and actually shocking to me how very different it turned out.
The moment I met Nancy and Denny I felt like we had known each other for centuries. The similarities between Nancy and I was magical as our personalities felt like we were talking to our twin, identical not in looks but by character. I admit it fascinated me to no end how in sync we were. On the other hand, Denny was the person who had this peace and the aura of an old wise soul about him and one wanted to just sit and talk for hours.
Our connection was so strong that after our initial stay of 4 nights we booked to stay one more week after our trip to Naples. I found family and didn’t want to say goodby to soon.
God has such an intricate way in placing people in our path at the times we need it most. Our healing started when we bought Lucy and launched our adventures. Now, we were hurt and in pain and healing came slow but it came by humans that crossed our paths in places we least expected it. Each one of you I call Angels, as you brought kindness, laughter, hope, compassion and empathy which was what we needed.
It took a big leap of faith for what Ron and I did almost 2 years ago now. I know many called us crazy, but it literally was about saving our life’s. It was a Hail Mary with nothing to loose and it payed of and it opened my heart again and returned my love towards fellow humans.
I could start by listing every name that slowly chipped away on my wall but those who did know as I made a blog post in one form or another about all of you.
You all reminded me slowly on who I was and what I had lost and it all came to a close when I met Nancy and Denny. I knew when we met I had come full circle and that I am once again whole. I still carry pain but in the end that made me stronger as I learned I will never let that happen to me again. No more handing control over to others that aim to hurt.
So Nancy and Denny are Angels and I am beyond grateful our paths crossed ♥️
Always sisters at heart, and I sure love my sisterhood!
