I am actually not a huge fan of that song, but it has been stuck in my head this whole past week. It is just so fitting.
So, this is the first time that I am updating from my new cute little netbook. That being said, this thing is so small and there will be typos. But I prefer typos in my blogs, because it reminds you the readers that I am not perfect. Speaking of readers, THANK YOU! I have so appreciated being able to talk to many of you about this opportunity of a lifetime that I am getting ready for right now. Without your prayers, encouragement, financial support and more, I would not be currently in LA (not sleeping of course) getting ready to board a plane to Guatemala!!
There are a thousand emotions running through my head. I am so excited to be reunited with people whom I already refer to as family. And yet, I am struggling to cope with the fact that I won’t see my friends and family who have gotten me through so much as much as I do now. I also feel a sense of peace and relief, which is really weird, But I am enjoying it. Peace is SO welcome with me. I am so terrified some moments because I do not know what to expect at all, that I think I might poop in my pants, and yet I am so elated to see true beauty around the world. To take in all that God has in store for me. I have this craving for a sense of awe and wonder.
This trip, the more and more I talk about it, sounds nothing like me. Which is really cool. Because that means that I am going to change in some many miraculous ways in order to be more like Christ, and that and terribly exciting.
Hey!! I have been passing out my blog cards and talking up this website for MONTHS! So gimme a shout out before I head off to Guatemala to show me who is reading this! Also, shout outs are just fun :]
Next time I update…..I will be in GUATEMALA!!!!!!!!!
Adios mi amigos! Hasta Luego!!
