leap

"Leap and the net will appear." - Zen proverb

That was on the cover of a card I sent to Jack Bauer yesterday. Many times, I pick up the "Quotable" cards for a little inspiration. And this one didn't fail. It really got me thinking.

Here is what I wrote to Jack:

I've decide that the saying on the front of this card is an excellent motto for military spouses. It certainly has been a good one for me. When we started this adventure, I thought I had to build my own net, from scratch, and I couldn't find the traditional materials. Then I decided to leap online. And wow! The net appeared and it is limitless. While not traditional in most senses, I do know that there are people, my net, that have got my back. And they can knit cute hats to boot. Doing good here.

Actually, I think I found the trapeze bar. ;-)
