A new beginning.

Today was full of way too many emotions.

Thankful for good friends, sweet mentors, and loving Christ-followers.

Scared about the next couple of weeks but excited for the future.

I leave for Nicaragua in 21 days and I do not feel prepared whatsoever.

I have never felt like this before.

Mehhhhh.

First day at my new job & I love it!

So glad to be quitting Oscar’s for good tonight!

Your presence is all I need 
It’s all I want, all I seek 
Without it, without it there’s no meaning 
Your presence is the air I breath 
The song I sing, the love I need 
Without it, without it I’m not living 

There will be no one like You 
And no one beside You 
You alone are worthy of all praise 
There will be no one like You 
And no one beside You 
You alone are worthy of all praise 

Bethel Church- I Will Exalt You

So the other day I was out with a couple of friends and I ran into my cousin.

I started talking too her and asked if she knew one of my friends who was across the room.. When she looked over at her, she said “Why is it that you only hang out with old people?” 

At first I was like did you really ask me that? She is only 28 and I am 18. Not that big of an age difference. 

Then I started thinking about it. Though she is 28 and married, it has no effect on our friendship. Out of all the girl “best friends” I have ever had, she is the only one who has never trashed me when I wasn’t around, she always encourages me and is honest with me always, and she is always there for me when I need her.

She is a true friend. She is so beautiful on the inside and out and she is such a true woman of God. She loves the Lord with all of her heart and it is so obvious. 

So yeah, it may be weird that I hang out with someone who is 10 years older than me. But I would choose to hang out with her any day than with people who act as my friend. 

I am totally blessed to have her in my life! She is truly my best friend.
