Ebb and Flow of LIFE.

So I am writing again, SURPRISED right? This blog thing might just weasel it's way into my routine ;~) I am currently at Sky Harbor Airport in lovely Phoenix, Arizona. I am headed back to the grind of college classes, those of which will come to an anti-climactic end in about 4 weeks.
I hate that about the end of the year. I always tell myself that when the end of the year finally happens I will be ready for it, and everyone packing up and leaving will be enough to emotionally prepare me for summer and subsequently a new school year. But since high school, I have found that to be very untrue. I have found that there are no fireworks, no big moments, just ends and non-exciting goodbyes that signal that a year of memories have come to end, another chapter closed. Ends just come softly, and you just have to take them as they come, because and end means there has to be a new beginning. I am not sure if I will ever be okay with that ebb and flow of life, but like most change inducing aspects of life, I really don't have a choice. :~)
Anyway, minus that tangent, I cannot believe the end of the year is upon us. I was talking to my Mom on the way to the airport in disbelief that by this time next year I will be 20 (no longer a teenager!!!!), and I will have seen the world, and will be getting ready to be a senior in college. Talk about a reality check. That is just craziness.

Here is a verse that I want to close this post out with:

But He rescues the poor from their distress and increases their families like vast flocks of sheep. ~Psalm 107:41

This is what God has done for me at Point Loma, and this is why a small piece of my heart is left there when I leave for summer. To me it will always be a place of joy and growth, a place where God taught me many lessons including loving others as they are, and loving myself as I am.
