Hey…… Yeah I know it’s been awhile since my last post. Several things have happened since then, some of them being: going on an EMT ride-along, Easter, working to finish high school, and getting ready for graduation with my sister.
A couple weeks back something big just kinda hit me. I get that I will be gone for 9 months and I will miss some stuff. However, I don’t think I really thought about it until I started saying/thinking “Next year for your birthday we should…” or “Next Easter I should…”. Not only will I miss those kinds of things, but I will also miss the once in a lifetime things. A couple of my friends have gotten engaged and I won’t be able to go to their weddings. (It probably won’t truly set in till I’m on the trip but it is starting to.) There’s a lot that I am going to be missing! But then I started thinking about all the good (and fun) things that I will be doing and not just for me but for God. With teaching English, working with kids, construction projects, and whatever else they have planned. Then I would smile and think “It’s worth sacrificing all the things I will be missing to do this!”
Until next time…….
