Months of a lifetime

It amazes me how much life can change in one month. You can learn things that change your entire world. You can experience things that have a lasting impact. You can decide what's really important, and what you need to hold on to and what you need to let go. It's been one of those months. Another month that i can add to the collection of months that have been stretching experiences for me. Stretching is an interesting thing. Having so many friends that run cross country, I've heard a lot about the importance of stretching. It doesn't always feel so good when you're doing it. It hurts a little, but if a runner doesn't stretch, then the race can potentially do a lot of harm to their muscles. The stretching itself isn't the important thing. The important thing is the race that comes after the stretching. So, I'm just preparing to run, and im going to run my heart out. So inquiring minds want to know exactly whats been going on in my life...well, im sorry, but now is neither the time nor the place. Someday when i write my memoir this will be an entire chapter :) I can tell you this today, i love my God more than i did yesterday, and more and more each day i can see that He has a plan for my life, and thats what is really important.

In other news...i got a new camera, taking a photography class, i'm minoring in spanish, going to start teaching spanish to elementary schoolers, working out every day, becoming more active in prayer meetings, preparing for Argentina, and lovin life :)
