I’ve returned to America for a month-long visit and will be updating from March. Bare with me as there is a ton of new stuff to add. Feel free to poke around the old blogs and read the new ones. There are A LOT!

In 2008 I participated in a cultural exchange program with a university in East Asia. I enjoyed my time and really came to love the culture and the people, so much so that I decided to come back for a whole year! Now that I have completed my first year, I decided to stay for yet another year – so the adventures continue.

You are invited to join me in the adventures that come with readjusting to a completely different culture and all the drama that this life holds.

How Sweet It Is

At one point in my life, I derived my sense of worth from my relationships with boys, and think it is something that I remain susceptible to still. I have been feeling kind of lonely lately, so this whole situation with Little Ten has been playing and replaying in my mind. I decided to go for a walk this evening after my classes to help clear my thinking and to seek some wisdom from father.

As we were walking (J.C. and me), I could feel him put his hand against my face and held it there. I knew then and there that I had found the love of my life. I have long since known that my value and worth come from him, but today it became REAL. He was so close next to me! It is a feeling that I will never forget and will treasure for the rest of my life. There is nothing as sweet as knowing that you are intimately loved to the core of your being. It is my hope that each of you can know this experience and be encouraged by it.
If that doesn't bless your heart, there's probably something wrong with you (wink). But if you need a little more pick me, trying shagging it out (shag dancing - get your minds out of the gutter!) to James Taylor's "How Sweet It Is". I'm not ashamed to admit that I dance party it out alone quite often.
