Thoughts at the end

It seemed that this day was to be the life preserver for many people. Perhaps this was true because it marked the end of finals, or the Christmas party that everyone was either waiting for or dreading finally came and passed. Either way it's over. I met some great people, the types of people that you wished were permanent in your life, but are not - they are drifters called to long journeys and nomadicism. Regardless, their presence was a blessing and what they had to offer - great music, art, conversation, connections within our small world.... it was refreshing. Thank you new friends.

I am sure that the community house concept is apart of the next year ahead. It is exciting but dangerous and nerve rattling at the same time. Maybe I am facing the things that I only spoke to others - leaving the secure and comfortable for the unknown and strictly faith living. But I know it is the road to walk along next. I know that I will not be alone. Here's to the journey always.

My friend gave me a photograph he had taken for Christmas - each day I find myself deeper and deeper into that sun rise, feeling hope and newness. It makes me feel calm and restless as the same time. Tonight it makes me want to sleep - or perhaps that was just this crazy week which I can now end. until the sunrise....
