One day I woke up and decided to cut my hair. This may not seem drastic but you have to realize my hair was near the bottom of my ribs...and I have a long torso...Got the image? Well now its to my shoulders. Why did I do this? I needed change. I wanted something different than what I was used to. And I love my hair now. Its so easy, and fun! But the next change wasn't one that I wanted. I didn't expect it and I'm still struggling with it. Becoming single against what you thought would ever happen is hard. I am beginning to see it as a good thing but still struggling with it.
Coming home a completely different person was one of the hardest things I've ever done. Everyone had questions that I just wasn't ready to answer. But some day we all have to face the music. But despite the heartbreak I was ready for my life to take on new directions so I pursued my interest in youth ministry by going to my youth pastor I intern for and asking for more responsibility. These past few months have really opened new doors for me. I got accepted to my dream school, I am being offered a leadership role at a new HUGE church close to my next school, and I am growing as an individual everyday.
I look back at 2010 and all the things that have happened and I am excited for what 2011 brings and I know God is behind all of it. I travel back to Ireland in July for a missions trip and I am excited but nervous. These next few months of FJC will fly by and before I know it I'll be moving out to Costa Mesa.
So its safe to say I'm leaving the past and moving on..and everything has changed for me..
