Thanksgiving break...

is here.... Tonight as I was pumping gas at the Arco down the street, I stopped for a moment and took in my surroundings. Home always feels so wonderful. Then I thought to myself, despite all else that happens in life, I am blessed to have it. I love the wet streets, the bright shops, Christmas lights and the crisp air.

I have so many decisions to make. Everything I had planned suddenly doesn't seem right and God might be changing my path. I am perfectly okay with that, I just hope it's the right decision.

Living obediently to God is the best feeling in the world.

I prayed tonight about the man I am supposed to be with. I prayed that God would bring him into my life in His timing and that when it happens I will be ready enough and know how to properly love him and remember to put God first. I've failed in every attempt thus far.

This semester was definitely a huge learning experience. The phrase "what doesn't kill us, only makes us stronger" held so much meaning the last few months. I've learned, hopefully I've grown, and I'm ready to LIVE.

I have a lot to be thankful for. (List to come tomorrow)
