Fall is approaching in Lexington again. I haven't been here for fall in 5 years... it feels strange to sit in the same seats that I did when I was in high school. Starbucks has clearly never changed in my life, haha. My perspective has changed tremendously, but other than that, my life has made a moreso, perfect circle. I started here, and I ended here. Almost against my will, but there is something challenging about returning to something that once was all you knew.
This is the truth.
When I left Lexington, I hadn't traveled the world as much as I have now. I have been far east as Europe and far west as Hawaii, and many states in between. I have seen faces that in four years have made more of an impact than the past twenty. I have learned lessons that some never experience while reading a book. I have had opportunities that some never have in a lifetime, yet they have become quite normal for me now.
Life took some uncertain turns, but what would life be if it was always the same?
Anyway, I have too much to update if I were to do it all in one sitting.
Know that I am happy, internet world. I have learned that though the Israelites hardened their hearts and wished for what they had in the past, which was oddly enough, binding and slavery... the Lord had something much better for them in the future. The promise land. I am happy to be in Lexington, and have the wonderful job that I do. I have the freedom and ability to travel and play and sing Christ's love over people, and this by far, has been the best experience.
I am drinking chai tea right now, and life couldn't possibly be any better.
