Re: Torn Marriage Due To Living Locations

I agree with 1aokgal, living somewhere new is what we make of it. We can make the effort to get to know people, join clubs, take up hobbies, take the children to clubs and sports, explore the area etc etc, or we can refuse to make any effort at all and be miserable and lonely. I have also lived in several different places and its highly likely that we will soon be moving away to another part of the country due to the fact that my husband may have a good research job at a university there.
Will that be easy, especially at our age(late 50's)? Not after having lived in this area for 30 years, where I have some lovely friends, not being that its further away from all my children and other family members, BUT its also pretty exciting, a new challenge and fresh start somewhere that neither of us know, a new church, new places to explore, near the coast, new people to get to know, and we are pretty sure that God is in it.
As I said we can make the best of it or we can moan and complain.
