Went to the mall today. We have a new Forever 21, two floors and overwhelmingly large. Walking in, my heart was pounding and I had a big dumb grin on my face. "Like a kid in a candy shop," or at Disney World for the first time. Other than that, though, I spent a whole bunch of money that I don't have. I need a job. Check out my plans for the next three days:
Tomorrow: Visiting my grandparents, then stopping by Planet Fitness to beg them for a job. Praying they hire seasonally..
Wednesday: Hair appt (FINALLY!!!), applying to the Windgate Hotel, Life Campus...
Thursday: Applying to Stewart's!!!

Peace is not the absence of affliction, but the presence of God.
There are too many jumbled up thoughts about this in my head right now.
But to put it quite simply, I miss Ithaca.
Not only that, but I miss having a life.
Wait - let me rephrase that. Lately I've been learning how to word things more carefully, so that they are full of truth and so that there is no chance of them turning into a bad confession.
I miss LIVING my life.
Yes, obviously I'm still alive. Breathing, blinking, typing up this blog.
But this transition period is almost becoming too much to bear. Bears are powerful and strong - two things I lack by my own ability, but two things I am able to obtain through God's willingness to guide me through.
That is where my trust is lying, and He is who I am believing to receive direction from.
It's all about God's perfect timing, and the peace that comes alongside it.
I yearn for His direction and that peace of knowing that I am taking the proper next step.
