Exactly one year ago today I was flying across the globe, heading for Gulu. It's strange to think how much happened in just 365 days. Recent weeks seem to have dragged by, but I know months that had wings.
It seems appropriate, somehow, that this is my last week at my current job. I don't feel like I ever really took time after arriving back in the states to process, to really pray and seek answers for what I should do next in my life.
I'm overwhelmed by the possibilities of life. For so long, I viewed my life as a narrow road, one I needed to map out and plan and work hard to ensure that I never took a step off.
But now, life seems as full of opportunities as a day does of minutes. I’m still working on being courageous enough to go after my dreams, still trying to figure out what those dreams actually are.
It’s late, the house is quiet, and the only light is what is pouring out from my computer screen, casting eerie shadows across the walls. And I’m just sitting here thinking over the last year, and wondering what I’m supposed to do in the next…
If anyone has any good ideas, let me know. :)

Betsy, You have one of the best heads on your shoulders that I know. I am positive you will make good choices for you. In this world today, you will probably walk many different paths and do an excellent job at them all. You do things for the right reasons and that is what is important. I love you. Mom
