I feel like there is still so much left to do. Those of you that know me well, know I spent months doing college searches just to find the perfect one. I love planning and perfect planning creates precision.
This time, however, I tried to do things a little bit different. Not in a desire to spike my stress level, but rather with the motivation to relax a bit in my life style. Laugh if you will, but I wanted this to be a very flexible and spontaneous trip. It started by my decision to not begin planning (and thus increase my excitement) while at Clemson, also leading to counting down the days or wishing my short time remaining at Clemson, away. So I held off planning until I was done with finals.
Its quite a strange feeling, really, wishing the days would approach quickly yet not wanting it to come quite yet. Now I find myself jittery with anticipation for my coming trip. Though I feel like perhaps this may not have been the best idea for my nerves, I know it will allow my heart to go wherever it pleases.
So in my last night here, I am stumped over exactly what items to pack. Remembering all those things I have yet to buy, I am hoping that this Nor'Easter that has me snowed in will slow down over the night, allowing me to run last minute errands prior to my drive down to Philly.
Though graduation is a chapter now passed, I feel like this is the real beginning to me. Discovering what the world is about, and understanding my place in it.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord. "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future." --Jeremiah 29:11
Please keep me in your prayer for a safe trip to Philadelphia, and then also a safe flight over to London. Wishing you all well.
Then Jesus said to his disciples: "Therefore, I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes....And how much more valuable you are than birds! Who of you, by worrying, can add a single hour to his life? Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?"--Luke 12:22-26
