Tonight I went outside, in the rain. I spun myself around until I fell over. I almost puked up the kiwi I had just eaten. It was truly awesome. Just me and God, in my backyard, me able to be completely who I am. Well, except for one aspect. My grandpa was sleeping so I couldn't shout super loud, and I was not too keen on the bugs in the yard that might get on me if I laid down, which I really really wanted to do. But otherwise, I really enjoyed it. There is this rope thing on the big tree out back with a loop on the bottom end, so I put my foot in the loop and swung around a little until I got scared that the rope would break. Yes I'm rambling, but isn't that what blogs are for?
God has really been showing me lots of things throughout these past few weeks. One main thing is that I need him. If I don't spend time with him everyday I literally get really grumpy and am selfish and not your favorite person. Another is that God is approachable, even though he's huge and complicated. Maybe, deep down, he's not complicated, but at least he's incomprehensible, or maybe that IS complicated. They seem like synonyms. Anyway, He's awesome. And even though there are cute boys in the world, God is the one I want to fall in love with. I'm not there yet, but I'm getting there. I'm at least grumpy if I don't spend time with him.
Well, I'm tired and I'm not going to ignore my body so I'm ending this.. Now.
He is Enough

Changes
Costa Rica
the land of beauty, tourism, confusion. the land where i first learned to appreciate spanish and places outside America.
Mexico
the land where people think they know about it but they really don't. the land where i grew up. the land that welcomed me.the land that taught me to value my family and relationship with God.
India
the land of stuckness. the land that causes division among families. the land i almost love. the land i really hate.
Thailand
the other land of beauty. the land of complete respect. the land of stubborn backwards thinking. the land i was able to explore. the land i almost call home. the land i love.
America
the land of opportunity. the land of pride. the land of closed-mindedness. the coveted land. the land i now call my area of residence. the land im confused about. the land thats not so bad.
I'm in America. My family leaves in 11 days for India. Thats part of the reason it is the land of separation. I'm not looking forward to that fast approaching day. I am not close to my siblings, but I love them and hate the thought that we will be separated indefinitely, for at least 6 months, maybe up to a year and a half. ok im out of words.
