That would be funny, if it did not feel so true. But every movie has an ending, we just have to make it to the end of this one.

I came to the US from Brazil in 1984, so the image jumped at me :-)
I always want guidance from above, so I just want to say: “I know where I am here, but where should I be going?”
Blessings to you Beth! ♥♥
