reality is better than my dreams

**I'm gonna have to go ahead a put a mushy alert here, I might go in a little bit**

Dr. Seuss said the above quote, he was talking about being in love. I guess I am too because currently  I am in love with my life. Right now my reality is better than anything I could have ever dreamed up.

Recently over the July4th week/weekend my entire immediate family was together. It was quite an experience, we laughed, we swam a little bit, we talked. I spent quality time with my brothers (my all time favorite thing to do in life) and we had those in depth conversations that only Doss's can have. We cried as we reminisced about the past, and those that couldn't be with us. And as I sat at my big brothers house looking out at everyone, I thought to myself, these are the times memories are made of. I will remember that day for the rest of my life. I'll probably tell my children about it. I laughed about it to myself the other day, just thinking about how awesome it was to be surrounded by all that love.

we've been through alot but I see that God is bringing us full circle.

I see miracles happening in my friends lives. They don't see them yet, but I do. Isn't that one of those amazing things about faith? Just knowing everything is going to be ok, despite what you see in front of your face. Healing, self discovery, closer families, new jobs, financial prosperity. Its all coming your way.

I love my new place. I love being on my own. I am even loving the anxiety I'm feeling about possibly being broke lol. Being out here and doing this feels good, it was so necessary, and I am so happy.

Family is everything. Being a Doss is the best. I wouldn't change it for the world. Good, bad, ugly, its the stuff dreams are made of.
