Breaking Free

For the longest time, I have let many different things hold me back from achieving some of the things that I wanted to accomplish.  In addition, it also prevented me from even dreaming that certain things could ever be possible.  However, as I have entered my last year of college, I have decided to make some major changes in my life and not let these things hold me back. While nothing super dramatic has happened, there is a different feeling about life in general.  The sky is brighter and things look much more optimistic.  So no matter what is holding you back, it is possible to start over even in your current circumstances and as scary as it may seem to leave something that is familiar, it will all be worth it in the end.  Here's to many more changes ahead and even brighter days!

Patience

Patience is something I have never been great at.  However, today's events are forcing me to be much more patient than I want to be.  My phone decided to die randomly and I have spent the last four hours driving places and asking questions that no one can answer.  I really just want this resolved since it is a very inconvenient time but I guess I get to learn patience along the way.  I just wish there was an easy solution to this all.  I feel like it shouldn't be this difficult but it is.  But I guess we all have those bad days from time to time.  I'm just glad it wasn't anything worse.

New Adventures

Today I had something hit me... in exactly one year from today, I will be a college graduate.  I didn't spend a ton of time on this thought since it is a scary idea.  School has been my life for so long and while it is a day I am definitely looking forward to, there is a lot of unknowns out there that create a little bit of fear associated with this change in life.  I know I have nothing to complain about since there is still a year and no decisions have to be set in stone anytime soon.  However, it made me think about where I am in life and where I want to go.  I absolutely love my major and am glad that it is such a marketable degree.  But while I love it, there is more that I want out of life than just a career.  The more I look at my life, the more I have a desire to possibly become a teacher.  I don't think that my current degree is a waste by any means but could help me to get a job teaching high school business or something along those lines.  I am super excited for my opportunity to work as an EFY counselor again this summer.  The two weeks I spent last year were exhausting but in the best possible way.  I look forward to it and all the adventures it will bring.  So while I am not making a major transition in life, there are many adventures coming my way in the next little while.  Let's see where this road takes me.
