[Begin Dream Sequence]
It was the fall of 2005 and I wanted to ask a certain woman to marry me. I remember talking with my dad about it and it was almost as if I was asking his permission. I'll never forget the advice he gave me. It's so simple and practical yet so profound. He basically told me that I was the only one who could make my life's decisions because I was the only one who had to deal with the consequences, good or bad.

Believe it or not that was some of the most freeing advice that I've ever gotten from anyone. As I was wrestling this week with choosing a job and leaving another behind, I was reminded of that moment. It was a tough choice because I put a final stamp on one chapter of my life and am taking a huge step into another. I said farewell to The Oconee Enterprise, which was difficult, and I am thankful and blessed for the experience gained over the past two and a half years. But I feel that this is my next move, I have a peace about it. Continue to pray for Megan and I as we both adjust to new job roles, and that God would lead us to a church where He would have us get involved and serve in.
*In case you're wondering, I accepted a job as a Graphic Designer with a company in Norcross, GA. That's more or less the Atlanta area for those who are not familiar with the area. I'm excited and ready to jump into this new role.
