3 Weeks ago
I was flying very high in the air away to college
My hopes were high too of what was come
I was scared
I didn't know what my Junior year would be like
And I still don't know
Written this week...After my Junior year I can say...
That it was more difficult and hard than ever could have imagined.
I'm glad I didn't know.
Sometimes I just wanted the year to end, but it never seemed to end.
Than it was over and suddenly it didn't seem so bad after all for I knew each thing I did God had used to shape and grow me.

I was standing in the middle of a parking lot all by myself.
My parents had just driven away and there were boxes to unpack
I didn't know then I would cry every day for the next few weeks
I didn't know the unspeakable joy I would find in new friends
The feeling of having to write 3 dreadful papers had not fallen on me
Many days later I would know that I had never been alone and the grace was plentiful
2 years ago
I kept my grandma company in a cold hospital room.
The journey of caring for grandma had just began.
I'm glad God didn't tell me I would have to watch my grandma suffer.
I had no idea I would cry more tears than I ever had as a baby that year.
I had absolutely no idea of the lessons God was about to teach me.
There was no inkling in my mind of the privilege I was about to have of caring for my dying grandmother.
12 years ago.
My eye hurt very bad
The eye doctor saw me every day
Very strange was it for someone so little to have shingles in their eye
Mom prayed fervently that I wouldn't lose my vision
Today I still don't wear glasses
And that's where I stopped remembering...
