It's Been A While...

Life has been ever crazy. Between the school, studying for finals, crazy times with friends, and saying good bye to the most amazing friends a girl could ever have for the summer... We could say that I have been busy.



Coming home is always an interesting business. I never know what to expect and what's going to happen. After my third year of college, I've learned that coming home for the summer has been a test of what I learned over the school year mixed with more lessons on growing up.



Life always seems to get more complicated, and sometimes even more difficult. Every day is different, and some are better than others. I feel like I'm paddling in uncharted waters without a clear direction. Sometimes I'm tossed by waves of uncertainty and hit by thunder storms of pressure from different influences. Sometimes I think it's all too much...



But in the middle of it all, there is a light that burns brighter than anything else. It's my saviour, Jesus Christ, who is guiding my way back to Him. I don't always know what direction I'm going but I know that I have a relationship with God that is a solid place to keep me anchored.

I make mistakes. I don't always say or do the right things. I'm a young adult trying to crawl out of her awkward and introverted shell. But I keep learning, and I keep growing.

Will I ever have all the answers? Most certainly not. Will I continue to be a student of life? Most emphatically yes.
