Never would I have imagined that I would be taking a year off of school. Never would I have imagined that during this time I would be a nanny for two different families. Never would I have imagined that I would be an art teacher at a local Catholic elementary school. Never would I have imagined that I would be applying to clinical psychology doctoral programs. Never in my wildest dreams.
There's the update of my life within a paragraph. Major life changes. An unforeseen story unfolding. It is unbelievable to look back four years ago, right when I was starting college, and think about where I would end up after college was over. Never in my wildest dreams would I have guessed that I would be doing what I am doing at this moment. A part-time nanny. A part-time art teacher. Applying to graduate school. Involved in everything, volunteering in many. I would have never pictured myself four years ago, or even one year ago, at this point where I stand. Yet, here I am. In prayer today I came across this quote that I saved from a little devotional. It reads:
"God, please keep working on me. Your vision for my life is worth the wait."
Boy am I waiting! It's interesting to think about how I've ended up here. It's even more interesting to think about where I will be once this transition of life has ran it's course. Should I really call it a transition? Maybe this season of life has more meaning than I realize. Doesn't every season of life end up turning out the way you least expected it, and yet with such meaning? I am curious to see how this one turns out!
My plan is to use this blog as a means of updating my life happenings, fun activities, or fun finds. I hope I can do it justice this time around!
Peace and Joy,
Laura Lynn
