got a bag packed up at the foot of my bed

I get to see the world tomorrow.

ok, maybe just all the countries at Epcot, but it's a start.

Tomorrow is D-Day. My flight is confirmed, my bag is packed, and my nerves are as crazy as ever. Katelyn and I leave for the airport bright and early, and I'm still fighting to find a peace about it. I know it's just because it's so far out of my comfort zone, but I'm anxious nevertheless. But then I'm reminded of why I decided to go in the first place--without friction there cannot be growth.

I want, more than anything, to take this upcoming year to refine my dreams and figure out exactly it is I want to do with my life. A tall order, I know, but never hurts to try, right? Blume is the starting line for this journey. (Well, actually this whole internship was the starting line but any-who..) I'm recently very intrigued by traveling. I have no idea where I'd want to go first, or ever, or what I would do, but I am fairly certain that I want to at least travel for a while. (Easier said than done, I know) Maybe it's just my Eat, Pray, Love instincts taking over, but if I don't have any commitments after graduation I'd love to get a job that would allow me to see the world and inspire people. If anyone knows of any leads of a possible job that I might be describing without realizing it, please, PLEASE, please lemme know! ( I can use all the help I can get.)

Prayers are always appreciated, but specifically for this week as I'm a Blume YES facilitator and Bible study leader for 11th grade girls.
