Well, it has been awhile since I have posted, and I would love to make my first post in the month of May appropriately profound. However, after a few weeks of thinking too much, stressing an appropriate amount, and spending lots of time with people, I have few profundities left. Plus, to complicate the matter, I seem to be feeling a wide spectrum of emotions, and we all know how much I looooove emotions...
Currently Feeling:
- Tired: man, what a push! Didn't know I had it in me.
- Relief: semester is over
- Excitement: Tuscany!
- Disappointment: my secret...
- Letdown: after the major push
- Adrenalin: left from the major push
- Anticipation: summer!!
- Love: for community
- Concern: for a friend
- Hurt: combination
- Poignancy: the end of the school year is bittersweet
- Sadness: friends are graduating
- Hope: Spring is here, peace is in the air
- Content: now I can read whatever I want. And spend time outside.
- Guilty: I haven't connected with God as much lately
- Frightened: I can't stretch out my MDiv much longer... and what comes next?
Yet, overall:
- Ridiculously happy. Growing closer with good friends. Finding my niche. Enjoying learning once more. Nice weather. Awesome church. Enjoyable work ahead for summer. Life can be painful, but it is so, so true that God is good.
So I beg your forgiveness for the self-indulgent post. Silly emotions. They cause such drama!
A little drama is good for us. At least that's what they tell me. Yay for Tuscany! And we'll catch up when you get back. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteI really needed to read this today, "Life can be painful, but it is so, so true that God is good." Thanks for the reminder.
ReplyDeleteGlad you semester finished out well. I would be interested to read your Sung paper at some point if you don't mind. Have a good summer.
