So I said, 'I'll never live
in Texas.' Joined the Air Force,
knew that Basic Training was
in San Antonio and
so was advanced schooling, if
I wanted to follow my
chosen field. Figured after
Basic, I'd be on my way
to Alaska or Japan
or Australia (what I'd put
on my dream sheet). Direct
duty assignment: Carswell
Air Force Base, Fort Worth, Texas.
After I got out, never left:
guess God had other plans.
So I said, 'I'll never see
Alaska and came up with
a million excuses as
to why not: 'Can't afford' chief
among them. And the lack of
transportation another
one: how was I going to
get there? Long walk from Texas.
And so I'd read all I could
find about The Great Land and
dream ... maybe one day. It would
take a miracle for them
to come true . And then, God blessed
my twin sister and I with
the trip of a lifetime ... I
am still in awe. I've learned to
never say 'Never,' because
you don't know what God has planned
for you. And all I can say
to answered prayers ... 'Thank You, God.'
