I haven’t written here for a long while.  I suppose that could be for a variety of reasons, but it would be boring to read all of my excuses. 

I don’t particularly enjoy writing unless I have something worth writing about.  I’m not even sure if I’ll publish this post… I have to see until I get to the end!

This summer has been lovely.  Full of beaches and boats and bright sunny days, as well as learning to drive a scooter and making good use of it around the city.  It will be my last summer in Vancouver, as I plan on moving back to Ontario (most likely for good), in the late winter/early spring.

After a lot of time passes, I find myself craving change.  I’m not exactly living my dream, yet, but then again, to live your dream means you have to know what you’re dream is.  If you don’t have a dream, or a vision for your life, then you’ll most likely find yourself driving around in circles, wasting gas, ending up wherever you started.  I wouldn’t say that I’m finding myself right where I started, that is, not internally at least. 

Some might say that moving to Ontario would put me back at square one, but my heart and mind has changed and matured so much over the past 2.5 years that I’ve lived out West, I know it’ll be completely different at home.  I of course have a whole variety of fears that like to pass through my head from time to time, but really—what’s the sense in believing in fears?  Why should I choose to believe in fear rather than hope?

Who knows what’ll happen when things change; so far I have no idea where I’ll live, where I’ll work, or what I’ll do… But I think I’ll still choose to believe it’ll all work out. 

In a small scale, it’s still so far away and so much could happen between now and then.  At the same time, in the large scheme of things, it seems so close. 

I’m excited for a little change, for a different kind of challenge, a different pace.  I’m excited to grow up and eventually settle down, or whatever it is God has in store for me—and that’s just it, I have to believe there is something great in store for me.  God has a vision for my life that is way greater than I can even comprehend right now, so I have to take it one day at a time and seek Him as I go. 

Here’s to my last 7’ish months in BC!    

haha… yeah I think way too far ahead…
