Summertime...

Its raining now- it's beautiful. I love everything about the rain. I do. It's just one of those things I guess...I think it comes from the fact that being from New Mexico makes you appreciate the rain when it comes. It's not like Seattle where these kinds of days can so easily be taken for granted...

Staying in the city has its ups and downs (especially when there are fights on the 'L' stations right next to you and you almost get caught up in it). ~commuting pretty much sucks, but i'm over it~ I'm beginning to get my footing here-learning how to live here in this crazy town.

I have a lot of thoughts about this summer already, it has only been three weeks since the end of school (CRAZY!). So much has developed and changed. I think my life goes through seasons. Well actually I know it does, but lately I have really been FEELING it-if that makes sense. There is definitely a strange dichotomous relationship between Feeling and Knowledge in this life... but this season has been a growth and progress....

AHH! I feel like I could go on a 100 mile bunny trail for every 100 things that are going through my head...But I guess the thing is...I dont really think that I could put into words everything that I'm thinking...there's too much...

I'm so full of life right now~ full of joy and contentment, of ecstasy and hilarity, of hope for the future and of thanksgiving for the past. I'm scared too, yes, but I'm also trusting God with it all. I'm done with doing things my way. I'm giving it up, all of it-all of my fears, anxieties, and insecurities, as well as those things that are good, ALL of it.

I'm pumped for what the rest of this summer holds, it's looking to be one of the best summers yet!
