So I’ve been told I’m supposed to do a wrap up blog…like a ‘now
that I’m home I’m doing__ _(fill in the blank)” well if that was the blog it
would end here because I’m doing nothing. I am simply recovering. Yes, its been
a solid month or so but gosh, I can’t seem to get it all straight.
I think that’s the problem, I’m always trying to ‘figure it
out’ and I can’t help but feel like Gods up there laughin his ass off cause “jokes on you, there are no answers!”
But I was actually reminded today by a career counselor (yes,
I need professional help) that while circumstances change, things shift and new
questions arise….there are some capital T truths that stay the same. It was
illustrated in the fact that I met with this man last year and the careers I was
interested in and the things I said then could not have been more different
from what I articulated about life and possible careers now. BUT… who God is in
my life has stayed the same…the center of the spokes, the thing that holds
everything else together, constant.
I traveled around for 6 months, stayed in 25 different
states, ate hundreds of thousands of extra “vacation” calories, met loads of
new people, walked lord knows how many miles, spent way too much money and
drank more coffee than the average human should. And yet while EVERYTHING
changed…NOTHING changed. The center of my life, the ONLY sure thing I know to
be one thousand percent true is this...
Jesus loves me.
When that is theTruth at the center of all my crazy, “unadult”,
adventurous spokes…I know they have to lead somewhere cool. But I'm done trying to figure it
all out (and by done trying I mean I will probably still try but have moments
of sanity where I remember this blog and remember to stop trying!)
That’s all I got.
(Feels like I coulda learned that lesson without putting
30,000 miles on my car, haha! Funny the way it is.)
