Writers block, how long does that last you say? Two months and three weeks to be exact! I haven't been able to get my thoughts down in a complete sentence for a very, very, long time.
The last time I updated this beaut was when I was in Cambodia. Since then, I have traveled through Vietnam and Malaysia. I had final debrief, had a lay over in Tokyo and Los Angeles and made it back to my home sweet home; Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA! The last two months of the race were beautifully, insane. Vietnam was gorgeous and never to be forgotten and Malaysia, well Malaysia left me speechless with it's people, cities and islands!
Ministry, for me ended on a good note. I left with a full spirit, full of energy to serve and a hunger to continue my journey around the world offering Jesus' love. Now physically, that's a different story, I'm exhausted! I have been in America for three weeks now, reentry has been everything I though it to be. I had jet lag, food outrage, restroom outrage (sorry most readers are dying to know). The infamous questions of; what was the weirdest thing you ate? Did you see any cool animals? And a plethora of other awkward, random questions.
Now that I've had a ton of lunch dates, updates with my sponsors and lots of tacos, the reentry honeymoon is starting to fade. The realities of me not having 42 missionaries around, all the time or having a shower available, all the time (yes, Im sorry, the availability of a shower puts me under a lot of pressure) and not having my sister around, all the time, are the things I dislike most about reentry. On the brighter side I have had so much free time to spend with Abba and many opportunities to worship him in all the new ways I learned out around the world. I have introduced friends to silent worship dancing in the middle of the road- the only things watching us were the Lord, the moon and the wind. I taught my nephews, African praise songs and praise painted.
I KNOW your wondering…. what's next? Your probably reading this with hopes of me splurging my next chapter all over this blog. Nop, not yet, that will be coming soon. A few more weeks and I'll let you all in on what the Lord is up to in my life and how I am no longer a normal nine to five Daniela. I am finally In a place of life where I can honestly say I am ready. My hearts desire, my goals, His dreams, His desires are ready to be released in my life.
Staring up a new blog site. That will also be posted soon!
