CARD B20: This is the view from the back of the ferry as you leave Vancouver Island to go to the mainland. That day I was standing at the back of the boat as I headed for new, unknown things. I was gazing back at what I was leaving, rather than looking at what I was heading toward. Our hearts tells us when it's time to move on, but it's not always easy. Every place I live in fills me in specific ways, but reminds me that there are other things I long for. Over time I have come to appreciate that no place is perfect, but that I can receive the beautiful things that each place has to offer before I move on. Those things become part of me. And the next place will have its own beauty to impart.
