Everything on my mind.

Thats what my blog will consist of.

I tend to write only when something quite moving has happened or when I have some cool pictures to upload...but now I'm home.

And due to the fact I can't seem to find a job with any company anywhere I have started to slip into this lethargic depressed state of complete boredom in which I do NOTHING.

To help keep myself sane, I know I need to start writing...even though I have nothing to write about.


So from here on out, this is going to be a place where I write my thoughts... moving or not... because I need to make myself think. If all goes well this will make me want to take pictures :)

Enjoy....or don't!

I once spent 3 months across the world... just traveling and reading the Bible...

And I feel like I'm remembering these days like an old woman would.

I read Philippians last night.
Its the first time I've read my Bible in awhile, I hate to admit it.
Maybe I was suffering an overdose and have been in recovery since.

It's interesting now reading a book in the Bible and remembering where I was when I read it last.

Last time I read Philippians it was 1 or 2 in the morning, my team and I had been stuck on the Greek Island of Samos for the entire day. Now we were waiting for our ferry to take us to Athens... It was late by 5 hours.
With this time on our hands and the entire Bible to be read in a matter of weeks we took the opportunity to read Philippians and Colossians out loud in groups of four. Midnight reading in Greece.
After we finished reading I took my sleeping bag and with another girl made my way back toward the ocean,  there were a few benches along a wall beside the sea. I laid my sleeping bag on one of the benches and curled up, just listening to the ocean.  I wrote in my journal that night-

"It's like a dream. Perfect. I'm starting to see that God sometimes just wants to give us gifts, just because he loves us. He gave us Samos and a beautiful sunset. These are moments we couldn't even ask for. He gives them freely."

I think another gift He gives us is memory,
and how things grow sweeter over time.
