This whole idea of knowing you're moving 8 1/2 months before you do, is for the birds. Sure, I can plan and have closure and all that, but I think I'd almost rather just move. Like Abraham. God says "go" and I pick up and go! I don't have to know where. But, of course, if that actually happened I would wish for the 8 1/2 months. So, what do I do with my time? At first- ignore it. There's no need to think about it yet. Then- make a list of interests and take first steps towards applications. Next- gather together all information possible and fill out applications. After that- wait. Most of the rest is out of my hands. All the while, however, staying focused on the tasks at hand, keeping your head and heart in the game. Currently, I am filling out interest forms and applications. It's a long so process. I think I know where I want to go next, but I haven't even gotten to their application process yet. (It's in western Uganda by the way, I'll tell ya more later.) Until I know anything, I'll just have to be patient. Which I kinda hate. But I do love adventures. Adventure is the stuff life is made of. Pushing yourself till you think you just might break. And maybe you do break, but that would be an adventure too!
Feel free to pray for me as I work and wait. Hopefully I will know around April where I will be moving next. I would love to continue to have your support in this, my next adventure following God.
