Now we introduce

The next chapter in life has begun for me. And by "chapter," I think I really mean "suffering-of-a-hell-hole-life."
That sounds a bit sorrowful, but I've left one of the almost perfect summers to go back to school and into so much uncertainty. I really believe that if it weren't for the friends I have here, I would probably most assuredly leave. Yes, probably so. Oh well.
This summer was a great one. I learned so much. Maybe perhaps even too much. I enjoyed it, through and through, but I'm glad it's over. I needed a bit of a break.
I think the biggest thing I will take with me this summer is that I've learned that everybody is a person. Everybody is a human being with needs, stories, lives, and desires. Everyone is a person. I hope I don't take that for granted again.
Alright, I'm leaving my summer home. Maybe another one will come along, I dee kay, but for now I'm going back to http://www.abetterquestion.blogspot.com. Check it with me.
Thank you for coming with me this summer on my journey. Thank you for being such a loyal and great companion. You can take whatever you want from these blogs, but please remember to tell me when it changes your life for the better. I want to know what kind of things God does with you because of something He first started in me. Not as a pride thing, but as a God thing.
Thank you.
I'll see you back home.

It's been a while

Okay, so it's been 12 days since my last post. Or about that many.
No retreat. We pushed it back a week to this weekend, and then we were only going to have 3 show up and two were going to have to leave half way through, so it got canceled. Can't say I'm glad, but can't say I'm not glad.
Suddenly, I have been filled with the desire to go back to Romania. Some part of me is suddenly longing to return there and I haven't the foggiest gumption of why.
If you'll excuse me, I'll put up more tomorrow night. Right now, I have to go make chocolate pudding in the porcelain mixing bowl of life.
