Where Did the Year Go?

Seriously, where did it go? I feel like I just blinked and poof, there it went.

2010. A year of laughter, lessons learned, trials, new friends, and growing more than I could have ever imagined. I walked into 2010 with my head held high, not expecting much. I had wonderful friends, strong ambitions, and good work ethic, but did not expect to be stretched the was I was this fall. God taught me more than I ever dreamt. He taught me about the meaning of friendship; the value in having a strong, supportive family; and the importance of relying on God for everything. Literally, EVERYTHING. 2010 was a year I will never forget. While I would never choose to throw it away, I am able to say with certainty that I would never choose to relive it.

I am looking forward to 2011 and what is to come. I have learned to not plan what I want to happen throughout the year, but rather trust that God has a bigger plan than myself. Cliche, I know, but this has proven to be true time and time again.

I start nursing classes in six days. Holy moly. How did this happen? I am excited, nervous, anxious, and shocked that I am already at this point. I do not feel old enough, but according to the manilla envelope full of nursing papers, I am. I won't argue with the UMHB College of Nursing. :)

I hope you all had an extraordinary holiday season. May the Lord bring each of you a year full of happiness, joy, peace, trying experiences, and growth.

Until next time,
