Thankful is an Understatement

Summer was a blessing. 
I needed a break so I could recuperate from what could possibly go down as one of the most challenging years of my life. I needed to talk, laugh,cry, and share with people who knew me long before I even knew the geographical location of the Dominican. I needed to sit by myself for multiple hours at my parents' house where the only expectations hanging over my head were to load the dishwasher and put the clothes in the dryer. I needed to eat ice-cream/frozen yogurt every chance I had. And of course, I needed to read The Hunger Games non-stop over the course of 4 days :)
The vacation's over now, and if there's one thing that my heart is confident in, it's that it's time for me to be here.
I feel rested and restored to a healthy state of being. My grasp on reality and what's important has been reestablished, and just as my Father promises, I have a peace that passes understanding. Thankful is an understatement.
