That's how one of my friends described my transitioning. Strangely enough, she didn't at all mean painful. Rather, she meant that everything has been "ready when it's time".
Which is pretty much exactly how I've been feeling. God's blessed me in this transition with balance. Just the right amount of time at home. And spread out enough that I won't (hopefully) get tired of it. Some wonderful times of fellowship and fun with friends. Some strenuous yard work with gorgeous weather. Some wonderful days in the park, hiking and climbing. Some closure and some expectancy.
I'm going to get some time overseas. And some time exploring and adventuring out west. And DC is just enough plan that I'm not at all anxious about the future. And it's short enough that I'm not at all anxious about it being the permanent future.
State College and Penn State were a wonderful four years. But I was ready for change. Ripe for something new. The last season has ended, a new one is beginning.
Which, I suppose, is kind of like childbirth. Kinda.
