Third times a charm?
Well today WAS the day, but as of recent and as many of you know by now, I did not Launch this month with my squad. That being said I will be rerouting to a Launch in October. This will be my 3rd route of choice ( the second time I have had to changed routes) and though I feel as if a rug has been pulled out from beneath me, I am keeping my spirits up.
Being told no sucks. It’s not easy. I’ve heard no time and time again while fundraising and multiple other times in my daily life, and here it is once again as I was told no to leaving with my squad with less than 2 weeks till Launch.
But there is a lesson to be learned.
Vulnerability. Humility. Uncertainty. Heartbreak. Patience. And more.
How? Im not sure, I’m still learning. But I’m not giving in and I’m not giving up. I wasn’t raised to be a quitter.
That being said it has left me at a loss of what this spring and summer will hold for me. What will I do for work? It’s still in the air. It’s a minor setback in my life plans, but as I’ve learned these past few years, my plans rarely turn out anyway. God has a plan, I am just too impatient. (Never ask God for Patience…because He WILL test you) On the positive side, I have almost an entire year for Fundraisers, let’s see how creative I can get.
As of current, I have rerouted to October 2018 Route 1.
Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Argentina, India, Nepal, Armenia, Georgia, Bulgaria, and Albania.
I ask for prayers and just overall support.
A special thanks to those friends who have reached out and been there for me these past two weeks.
And a Shout-Out to my past squadmate Emily for being such an awesome and loving individual. I know we have never officially met, but you are a great friend and you will do Even Greater things on your Race, sending prayers on your journey!
