Leaps of Faith...

I will start by stating the obvious...my life has been full of surprises.  I'm quite sure I have said before that I've never really been a fan of surprises, some surprises...ok, but some, not so much! 

 I like routine and predictability. I'm a planner who thrives on knowing what's next. I'm a direction follower who tries to do what is right.

But, here I am, front and center of another hard to grasp, is this my life surprise? 

Thankfully, I have an army of love and support that willingly takes on these surprises with me. Otherwise, I'm quite certain, I would not be able to function and move forward. 

That being said, did you know there is a Facebook group called Leaps for Linda? (You can click on that title and it will bring you to the page)

I'm not even sure how it was started exactly, but it's been amazing!! This, my friends, is a good surprise. Every night, I log on to see adults, children, pets, baby bellies, strangers, friends and family doing leaps. I like to refer to them as my 
leaps of faith.

It certainly lifts my spirits and makes me feel so supported in this latest journey. I really can't even put into words what it does, not only for me, but for my Little Miss and E too. They enjoy seeing all the leaps.  

And now, let me just talk about Wednesday morning as I scrolled through and saw this...
crazy right? People are good and kindness spreads like wild fire...proof!
"Things can fall apart, or threaten to, for many reasons, and then there's got to be a leap of faith. Ultimately, when you're at the edge, you have to go forward or backward; if you go forward, you have to jump together."
