Recently my husband and I moved from a small town in northern Minnesota to a yet smaller, more remote place in northern Wisconsin. We were a few years out of undergrad, looking to start a new life together in a larger city, pay down some debt, then start graduate school. God had other plans for our lives. I longed to move back San Diego, CA were I attended college with beaches, night life, ethnic and cultural diversity. Instead we moved to Dunbar, WI, my husband's previous Baptist, Fundamentalist school, over 30 miles from the Walmart and Piggly Wiggly. Jobs are more scarce then grocery stores, but thrift stores and curvy roads are in abundance.
My resourcefulness is being put to the test. Will I find myself being 'Ghetto', "shabby and of low quality" as explained in wikipedia or 'Resourceful' like the wife in Proverbs 31 who "perceives that her merchandise is profitable", makes and sells, providing for her family?
You tell me: Ghetto or Resourceful?
