A Heart Pulled in Two Directions

I love Coeur d' Alene, Idaho so much and at the same time I love Tacoma, WA so much. How is this possible? I don't know, but it is. In Coeur d' Alene I have my family and camp. In Tacoma I have my friends and my ministry community. Both feel like home base to me in different ways. I feel like I should be glad that I have two places that I love so much and enjoy being in. This is good, the trouble comes however when the pull from other place interferes with the love of the place I am in. Because of this I feel like I will not be completely content until I can be fully in both places at the same time, but this is physically impossible. Thus, the fightable battle becomes figuring out how to be content where I am at when I am there and just counting the other place as a blessing of love far away that I can enjoy when I am there. This is a big challenge, but I pray this is part of what the Lord will teach me this summer.
