Wouldn't It Be Lovely

The drama I am creating in my head: She loves this place and can't wait to move in. She knows of our plans to travel. She knows us now after meeting me yesterday. She can see herself living here, making a life in this apartment, walking everywhere and enjoying the roof top garden with friends. She is trying to decide what price to offer. Our agent's stand-in calls later this afternoon. While it is not our asking price, it is close enough and the closing date is just perfect. Sooner than we dared hope for. We don't hesitate and accept. I pull out the lists of things that need to be done in order to temporarily pack up our lives. We get everything done. We leave to go on the road to find ourselves.

Ah, if only life could be scripted so easily. Instead I continue to practice patience and surrendering to the moment. Somedays are easier than others. Today is a hard day for this.
