It is really hard for me to believe that we are already 16 days into the year 2015. If I squint my eyes it's like 2014 never even happened as quickly as it flew by. When I look a little harder though I have scars, joys, healing, and growth to show for 2014. I may not have all the healing and growth I was hoping for, but it's a journey. 2014 was my first full year as a big kid. I am still not great at being a big kid. I sleep too much and watch way too much Netflix. It's pretty much like college, with more bills and less time for Netflix. I expected to feel different, and I really don't. I still feel like myself. I just go to work everyday instead of to classes. I miss naps, but I love my job. I failed my first class in 2014. I've never done that. I rarely get less than A. It was a very humbling experience, but after I cried it out, blamed it on other stuff (so mature), I picked a replacement class to take this summer and went on with my life.
I think the best part of 2014 was catching the vision of a great ministry, hopping on board, and planning, training, and getting it going. Now that things are off and running I think the best part of 2015 is going to be this ministry. It's a great feeling to be doing something that I feel God has been slowly calling me to and revealing to me for years. I am lucky to be on the journey with a great best friend. I won't go in to details in this blog but check it out http://www.hadassahgroup.com.
Every year I make resolutions but I have decided not to this year. I never stick to all of them. I am also entering into the busiest season of my life thus far. In the midst of this crazy time my goals for this year are to learn as much as I can in the remaining months of grad school, follow God's plan for my life, and be the best me I can be..and survive. Speaking of grad school finishing up this shenanigan will be the second best thing about 2015!!!!!
Last piece about 2014, I got to finish it up and start 2015 in Myanmar. I won't say much now but hope to blog more about it over the coming months. It was truly a life changing experience. I was surrounded by such joy and love that I needed so much. 2014 was rough, and I was not mad at all to be half way around the world loving on and receiving love from some amazing kiddos as I said goodbye to it. If you live around here and are considering the Myanmar trip...just do it!
This is a messy blog post, but it was a messy year. Happy very belated New Year, and hello 2015!!!
