What Now?

I have reached that interesting time in my life when I have no idea what to do next. I graduated college. Moved home with my mom. Became unemployed. Figured out who I am. Got a career. Moved to Atlanta. Trained for my career. Moved into my own apartment back in Macon. Continue working with the youth at my home church and singing in the choir. All of this has happened in the last four years. Four years. It flew by fast. People expect that my next move is the boyfriend/husband route. Let's be honest, that is what I expected would come next. Well I have been in Macon working, living, going, for almost a year and I am in exactly the same spot. I always had a next goal or thing to work towards and now I don't. So I decided to make a list. A list of hopes, dreams, weirdness, and randomness that could only have come from my mind. I probably will forget to update this blog and I may not get to everything on my list, but I feel like my heart and life should reflect the amazing blessings God has given me. After the Passion Conference back in January, I have been challenged in my own life to make the effort. So this is me making the effort.
