God is so gracious. There is a sun shower outside my window and all I can see is green.
On the road last weekend I was inspired to consider new adventures. I am still relatively un-tied-down. I am not married nor do I own a house nor do I have car or student loan payments nor do I have a long-term job that I am buckled into. When I got pregnant I thought that would mean the end of grand adventures for awhile, but Maggie is now so portable that the only thing tying me down is keeping her around her dad an acceptable amount of time.
So I'm thinking of Mexico again. I need to stay brushed up on Spanish and am too lazy to do so by studying nights on my own. I would love to be immersed. I would also love more cross-cultural experience. I'm looking into teaching English somewhere, possibly returning to Villahermosa, in southern Mexico, where I spent a month during a YWAM outreach. Southern Mexico is so so beautiful, and Villahermosa seems to have quite a decent university, from what the website looks like.
It is somewhat of a scary thought to consider doing something like this on my own, but over the past year I have grown to have so much more confidence in myself and my ability to do things while relying on God, not having codependent relationships, and I think this is just a step further.
Maybe after this lease is up, next spring/summer.
