Man, CYC rocks.
However:
Loosing your voice sucks. (So does drinking Lemon Juice straight to help it)
Not being able to see friends sucks (Thomas, Kristie, John, Chris, Skates, Bekah, I haven't forgot about you...please don't forget about me).
One would wonder than, why I'm going back for another week in T-Minus 1 Hour.
Maybe its God.
I feel as if I've been growing this summer. I feel as if I don't have a lot of purpose here, and its been an interesting experience adjusting to that. Depressing, but necessary.
Why necessary? Well, I have come to one concrete conclusion. I am here, undoubtedly, to rebuild my family. Every time I go through a fit of sadness I always ask myself why I am here (It goes back to the purpose thing), and the answer, from somewhere in my mind, always comes back the same.
I'm not ready to do that though. I have to be able to give a lot to do that. And to give a lot, you have to have a lot. I'm not even talking about money or security. I have to be able to offer a lot intellectually, emotionally, spiritually before I can do that. So it is time for me to amass those things.
A good work ethic too. So maybe that is my purpose this summer. Just to learn that.
To Happiness and Balance!
