you may be there, but your heart isnt......

i realize that going back to school is my next step of faith. so much has happened in the past few days that i just cant ignore. God has blessed me so richly and i'm ready, ready for something new. It's bizzare thinking that tomorrow i'm going to be a senior. Tomorrow i'm going back to school to finish off that final year. Tomorrow i'll be living the future i've dreaded and looked foward to the entire summer. I'm ready, ready for something real, and something new. Tomorrow is it. gosh....if there was one moment i wish time would stand still.... that would be right now.

i had the most amazing experience tonight. I got the chance to chillax with my fellow sunday school gals before the school year started. we shared some great lasagna, french bread, coke, and ice cream. Then we watched Bringing down the house (good, but rather had many...inappropriate jokes) and What a girl wants (definitely up there in my "best chic flick of all time" category.) What was amazing was what happened as i drove home. As i drove down Elkins i looked up at the moon, and it just totally took my attention away from the road. It was an amazing sight. Then when i got to the Commonwealth/Elkins intersection, i decided to take the long way home instead, so i could listen to this one song i liked on the radio. As i drove past Fort Settlement, i saw two deer cross the street side by side. Then i saw their sillouettes run around the lake. It was so beautiful. And all this happened under the moon. There was this totally awesome peaceful sensation that came with that whole experience. At that moment, i'd never felt so at peace of the fact that the year is coming and in a few weeks everything is going to be so different, but that's ok because i dunno what the future holds, but i know who holds the future.
