Amazing Journey

It’s a spectacular morning in Phoenix. The sun is shining and the desert is in full bloom. Before moving here from Los Angeles a few years ago I would never have guessed that a cactus sprouts flowers in the Spring, but like so much of life, there are unexpected moments at every turn.
Over the past few years of working with The AFA, I’ve learned more than I can recount from many of you who generously shared the stories of your unexpected moments - some joyful, some disappointing - and I am grateful to you for teaching me and indeed, this organization, and in the process helping all of us to grow.
As I sit here staring at the new AFA website, only one click away from launch, I’m filled with the hope that it becomes a truly relevant and useful place for all of you. I hope that people start to talk about this site as a place where community is formed and gathers, a safe place to connect, to build relationships, and to gain the kind of knowledge that helps those who visit make informed decisions about the unexpected moments that they’re facing. And on the flip side, I’ve got some fear going on as well, wondering if the seeds that this dedicated staff of 5 people planted during the winter will come to fruition. Wondering if the website and our programs will reach and touch you in the way we hope they will.
For me this is the moment that I’ve heard referred to as “living in the question.” Being with life, as it is - and as it is not.
So here’s to an amazing Spring and Summer. To unexpected moments of joy. To dreams fulfilled. And to making the journey together.
