Everything is temporary; so let's go jumping

My world is about to change. Again. Whether I'm ready or not, the rug is about to be pulled out from under me. I've spent the last year learning to cope with change and uncertainty. So, bring it on. I'm not scared. In fact, this time I'm going to take the rug out from under my own feet!
How? skydiving!

In preparation of leaving the last year behind, of having the rug pulled out from under us, a few of us dragged ourselves out of bed this morning (on an hour and a half of 'sleep') to jump out of an airplane.
For many of us (including me), this was a first experience. The enthusiasm ran high. 
 
And for good reason.  It feels good to be on top of the world. It feels good to let go. It feels good to be uncomfortable.
I used to hate uncertainty. But, you know, I've come to embrace it. Whatever I'm leaving behind here, I know that I have some amazing things to go home to - some that are known and some that are not.

I'm going to have to say the answer to that is YES.
