May Musings

FEELING BLESSED...

Because... I got into nursing!!! I had actually been waitlisted for this upcoming fall, but just found out that a spot opened up for me. I've been walking (dancing?) on air the past few days. Nursing has been my dream for years, and it is finally becoming reality. God is so good. SO wonderfully good.

ENJOYING...

This beautiful spring weather.  I am done with winter. I've been going on many walks with my dog lately - the sunshine and abundance of flowers are glorious.

READING...

Finally! It's been so long since I've had the time to read like I do at the moment. I've just begun Edmund Campion by Evelyn Waugh. I'm also re-reading Anne of Green Gables. I find that every so often I get this desire to read L.M. Montgomery. Her books are just so... comforting.

DISCOVERING...

So many new things. I've met such interesting people the past few months and they've all made a profound impact on me, all in different ways. I seem to go through this dramatic change every so often, where my view of the world just changes... for the better, usually. And I just begin to see things in a new, different light. It's quite amazing actually. (I'll say it again - God is good.)

THANKFUL FOR...

My family. I'm realizing I only have so many more months left at home before I move into dorms, and I want to cherish this time we're having together. It's also the last summer my sister will be living at home (...see below!)
Also, I'm feeling truly thankful for this gap year I've been taking. I was quite hesitant to do it at first, but it really has been a wonderful year of growth.

EXCITED FOR...

My sister's wedding! Yes, my older sister, my only sibling, is engaged!!! I am so incredibly excited for her and her fiance. They will be married this December.
