Today I bought a plane ticket for Savannah, Georgia. I am so excited to go see a new place, meet new people, and talk about interesting things. I'll be heading out in exactly one month. I will fly into Savannah, stay there for one night, and then go on to Saint Helena Island in South Carolina the next afternoon. Thrilled to be going doesn't begin to describe my feelings. I heard about this Quaker conference on diversity several months ago and that young adults could apply for scholarships. So I wrote a letter in application and was awarded the full amount I asked for, including the airfare and registration fee. It will be a great time. And yes, the camera is definitely coming with me.
I have thinking a lot about change. Some things we never want to change and have to deal with it when they do. Some things we want to change but have to learn to accept things as they are. I am glad that in some cases, God prepares me and opens up my heart to the change because looking forward into my life, I am glad things change. It keeps life interesting and full of growth. With new challenges, I learn so much more about myself, others, life, and the world. I like that.
