a lot can happen in 5 years

on my drive back from hilton head island today visiting a good friend i was thinking about how time flies (at least in retrospect it does...not always each day, but you understand).... and i was also thinking about how much can change it such a little period of time.

high school (jr. year ish) till freshman year of college in JoCo = lots of big changes. (what the heck was i thinking is my response back to most of that nonsense)

2004-2008 = life in Manhattan. lots of great memories, tons of amazing friends (seriously best part of those 4 years) and a lot of life lessons learned, learned again, and now mastered :)

2008-now = moved to savannah....found a career/job i absolutely love.. i work with some of the most talented and loving and caring people i've ever met. i've found my "nitch" ... or at least part of it. i've made some good friends, learned some more about myself...and am now a grown up? really. yah, i think just about.

anyways -- a LOT has happened in my life in the last 5 years. some good, some bad...lived a lot, learned a lot, and now just flying through my mid-twenties.

i can honestly say that 5 years ago i would have NEVER imagined i'd be working in ministry, in savannah georgia -- graduated from bible college and away from all things familiar.

i'm still learning. but i think i've got a lot to teach too.

i'm staying put. (for the most part)

Good! You stay put there so that when I come to visit I can find you.

I totally sympathize with that last big paragraph you wrote...about being away from all things familiar. Hope you're well!
