You are really great.
That's all.
chronic optimism
Today is going to be a great day.
I have every reason in faith to believe that no matter what today brings, it is going to be a GREAT day.
"This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it!"
Thank you Psalms 118:24.

flippers not required
I've always had larger feet. HUGE feet as a matter of fact. I believe I reached size 9 at age twelve and size 10 didn't follow too long after that. However, I stopped growing in 8th grade at a average height of 5'6 and 3/4. Luckily the contrast is still proportionate, but my feet do represent that of a woman who should be around 5'10 or 5'11.
Here's the cool part. My feet grew! Who knew a 22 year old could grow bigger feet (disregard 22 year olds who are pregnant)? Not I.
But it is official. My running shoes were feeling tight, my toes were cramping, and I felt like things were pinching my toes left and right. Went to the running store, and was told that my feet have taken a liking to being unavailable to the pretty and colorful women's shoes.
I am now going to be stuck with the boring blues, greys, reds, and greens of masculinity. At a whopping (running) size of 11.5, I can venture out on the open road knowing that I may be average in height, but when it comes to my foundation: it is a sturdy size of 11.5 and ready for movement :]
At least I won't need flippers in the swimming pool. God gave me my own built in pair!

simplicity
I may not be surrounded by a community of believers
I am surrounded by simple reminders of God's beauty, which I deny way too often myself.
me me me.
I'm guilty.
I have lots of time to think and read and dream and sleep right now. I have all these hopes for exactly what I want my future to look like. I am full of ME hopes, ME dreams, and ME plans.
I'm learning that is it important to place emphasis on the here and now, because I can trust what is in front of me but I can't trust my hindsight. I can put the dailies in God's hands but I want so badly to control the tomorrows.
What I (think) I know: the people I work with are fantastic. my heart needs to be softened towards the parentals. the peace of Christ should rule in my heart and not finances or people. I made an amazing blueberry/strawberry/grape fruit salad and I want to share it with everyone I know.
What I am clueless on: what kind of computer to purchase. what Paul is telling me and the Philippians. Why Nehemiah can rebuild Jerusalem and I can't even comprehend the amazing things God is asking me to build for Him. how to have peace that the future will come, and how to continue having faith in the hope that God puts in my heart!
Remember, I strive on accountability. That is my purpose for this little blurb :] Miss you all.
