It’s impossible – said Doubt,
It’s dangerous – said Fear,
It’s unnecessary – said Reason
Do it anyway – whispered the Heart

When we got
the opportunity to go and live in Tanzania with Jacqueline’s job after five
years in Denmark, it was not an easy decision. I considered myself lucky to
have a job where I was happy to go to work every day and was met with the right
amount of challenges. Thea and Jacqueline also thrived in Denmark, so the
decision to jeopardize our comfortable life in Gentofte to move into uncertainty
was far from easy. However, we made our decision in the end and packed up to go
and live in Africa once again.
It is said
that you regret more the things you did not do than the things you do. I guess
only time will tell if this is the truth for us. However, in my family we are risk
takers and I am convinced that we would regret not to go. In fact, I believe we
would in many years to come speak of the time where we had the opportunity to
go to Tanzania – the one country we have wanted to go to.
The moving business was painful but all that is
now behind us and the first few days here have been full of new adventures.
Jacqueline is working extremely hard getting her new organization set up and
Thea is starting her new school and swimming classes this week. Me: I guess I
need to find my new purpose in life as a trailing spouse.
