Writing.

I love overly expressing myself, or diving down deep into every situation. I love producing words on paper and holding a pen. I love typing out my thoughts as they come and putting my English to the test. Something about documenting helps me. It allows me to remember my past in more detail, but I try to document the significant parts as to never dwell on the unnecessary. It's the writer inside of me, and this is the only time it can get out and show itself to the world.

I really would love to discover more bloggers and compare journeys. But it would also be amazing to exchange long e-mails full of life stories and deep conversations. Those are truly the best colloquies. You see, my life took a complete turn toward an entirely new one, and it means a lot to have people join along to help me through.

God knows who to give us in our journeys. And that's the amazing part. Because who you need in your life right now is already in it, some way and somehow. Just look around and you'll realize it!

Dream Life.

This year I have learned how to actually fly. I guess I spent a few years dreaming it, but this time I actually tried it. It feels absolutely amazing. God has lifted me high and has given me so much more hope and happiness. Not only does He encourage us to take that first step, but He backs everything up. When a giant step requires getting in debt at first, He provides the exact finances. Nothing more, nothing less. He hasn't stopped amazing me this year, and I don't think He intends to cease this!

In a matter of months, I'm going to be packing boxes up with my stuff and head down to Southern California. I'll be walking the paths of Azusa Pacific University. It's hard to imagine, but yet I know it's real. This is the most unexpected turn of events in my life. I had absolutely no desire to go back to college. Yet something in me was begging for a purpose, a new journey, and a destination. God surprised me and led me straight into a place I never once knew about until He showed me.

It feels like a dream that I don't even deserve. I can't even get myself to picture it happening, yet I know it will. I want to begin already, but I don't want to rush anything. Although before such a new life begins and before I move along, I'm spending my last few weeks before school to relax in another country. None of this seems real! I cannot picture myself in the United Kingdom! But I will be there! I will be on a plane and on my way in fifty-five days!

I'm dreaming wide awake now. And for that, I really don't want to close my eyes again.
