Getting My Groove Back...

Well, it's been (more than) a couple of months back in Houston with Mission Year.

Since my return, there were so many moments where I stopped and thought..."oh, this would be a good blog post." Those moments were definitely ones that caused character, spiritual, and emotional growth and understanding. All were blog post worthy, but they never happened...oh, life.

Busy is a word I'm trying not to use...I'm treating it like a bad word. Instead of using the B-word, I prefer to say that my schedule has been full and alive. It has been alive with people, reading and reflecting.

This mentality has helped me to learn how to be in the here and now, enjoy my community, and prioritize my time for the "high priority" things. It's helped me learn to love and enjoy every quality time I have with my 6 friends instead of rushing the process of community.

The laughter and joy we share in this video is real. Behind the laughter and joy are hard moments that we've experienced in the first couple of months that have helped us genuinely grow.
