HOLY CRAZY PANTS!!!
I'm 21!!! I didn't feel any older at 19 and 20, but all of a sudden here I am, even more officially an adult.
Question: So how will I be celebrating this monumental occassion?
Answer: SOBER.
I don't feel ready to drink at all. I'm not scared, I just know myself. Even if I won't drink just to get drunk, I'm still not comfortable with that image of myself. Not saying that drinking makes someone a bad person, but I really want to focus on my witness and how I'm representing Christ. Yes, I know Christ drank wine too ( I love when people throw that one at me), and I could possibly show how to drink responsibly in public, but I'm just not ready to attempt that yet.
Don't worry, kids, I'll still be having some fun today. What better way to celebrate a birthday than with a giant, dangerous bonfire? Homecoming week has rocked so far, and it'll only get crazier from here on out.
Today is the first real October day, and I'm in love all over again with autumn. I try and explain it ever year, but I never do Fall justice. October is officially the best month in the world. Ever. Some of the coolest people's birthdays, Halloween, marching season in full-swing, apple cider, and a feeling of God in Nature like I've never felt before.
So I'm gonna get out of this dorm room, dress adorably 21, and enjoy God's awesome gifts. Have a wonderful day!
