Well the time is slowly gaining on me as the last week withers down to when I depart next week Tuesday morning. This past weekend it finally hit me that I'm leaving and it brings an abundance of different emotions with it. For the most part I'm incredible excited for the next year (+ or -). But there is a part me that wishes I was home to be seeing the adventures that are happening here. Though I know that leaving is exactly what is in store for my life right now.
As much of a relaxed go with the flow person as I aspire to be I'm very anxious about the next year as there is so much that could happen that is completely out of my own control. I know that God holds all things in His hands, but it would be nice to know that the future doesn't hold any pain or regrets. Mostly for the fact that I could miss some dramatic changes in peoples life's.
The biggest thing that keeps me going day to day is the mass amount of support that I've been getting for family, friends and even strangers who just like to hear about the trip. So I'd like to say thanks to everyone who has been praying for me and will continue to do so. Also thanks for all the comforting words during the last while. It's really confirmation that I'm doing the right things with the right motives behind them.
I'm going to do my best to be writing in this more frequently this trip than my last. So try to keep looking back, most likely will be updating on the weekends.
So take care and enjoy life to the fullest in the next year so that I can hear of all your own personal stories when I see you next.
Much love
-Africa bound.
