It has been months since I took the time to sit down and think to myself and then write about it. Last semester was such a whirlwind. I experienced all sort of emotions--extreme happiness for starting a new chapter of my life, sadness and loneliness from being away from my incredible family, stress and incompetency from school and church. You name an emotion, I felt it. But, I have grown so much since I have been here. I have grown in ways that I didn't expect myself to.
This journey that I am on has made me feel unsure about myself. Unsure if I am capable of what lies ahead, unsure of where I will end up in my future, unsure of if I am cut out for this program. Then I look at the people in my program that surround me; they are my family. They have been there for me every step of the way and I thank God every single day that I have such a close knit bunch to hang out with for wayyyy too long every day :)
The bottom line is that there are blessings everywhere in our lives. Even though we might find ourselves in an unideal situation, if you look closely you will see the silver lining. I am truly blessed and I never want to forget that.
