Boundaries

Mark,
I watched you yesterday, walking towards the new building, holding up your young one with care, with your daughter tagging along on your right. If there exists a picture of a perfect family man, that moment was it.
Thank you for sharing your latest decision concerning work. I hardly know you at the personal level, but having you share something quite private with me made me feel special.
Even though the society might look at your situation in somewhat of a negative light, you have my greatest respect and empathy. Only a few walk away from secure jobs, in the name of personal and family values. I guess most of us get too comfortable sometimes, afraid of changes, fearful of stepping out beyond our boundaries. The only way to grow and to follow our passion is to take a leap sometimes, no matter how scary it might feel.
Sonnie and I took more than a few leaps in our lives, but somehow, God always came through. My heart tells me that I should trust him completely in every situation, but my head tells me otherwise. I need a lot more work to do, in doubting less, and trusting in Him totally.
Mark -- you inspired me to be a better father and a husband. Thanks.
