my normal.

The everydays
of life have become so normal to me that often times I forget, my ‘normal’ isn’t
so normal. This is my normal…

My normal day is non-stop, go, go, go. It
is full of laughter, relationships and responsibility. Lately a normal day
begins at the sound of my alarm going off at 6:45am. I quickly get out of bed
already dressed in my work-out clothes, throw on my sneakers, and go for a run.
As I do, I watch the sunrise and crank up the worship music. Honestly, what
more could I ask for?!

I
make it back tothe other house to grab a hot shower (if I’m lucky), get ready
and eat some breakfast. By this time it is already 8:30 and classes begin in an
hour. If it’s not a prayer morning, I sit outside looking out over the beautiful
Mediterranean to spend some time with God.

I
quick grab a cup of coffee and make my way downstairs to the garage by 9:30.
Yepp, this is where I spend most of my time…in class. We start with prayer and
worship followed by teachings. Class til 11, quick coffee break, and it resumes
until noon. Break time follows from 12 til 2. I walk back to my house, likely
eat granola cereal or grilled cheese for lunch and head out the door to a
meeting or a coffee date with a friend.

Soon
enough, it’s 2 o’clock. Break time is over and back to the garage I go from 2 more hours of class. If it’s my week to cook I try to go directly home at four to
make dinner, if not I hang out with some friends or attempt to get something
accomplished from my never-ending check list.

6
oclock! Dinner time! I have dinner with the other 9 people I live with and some
of the leaders of the school join us. As we all finish eating, tea and coffee
is served and we just sit around and talk-one of my favorite parts of the day!
And yes, you counted right, that adds up to 4 hot drinks (coffee,tea) everyday!
Haha.
