things i miss

just in case you're wondering, my adventures are spectacular.
i can't help but be in awe of all that is happening. as much as i LOVE what i'm doing, i can't help but compile a list of things i miss...and it's not often i get to confess it...so here goes:
  • i missed fall. the closest thing i got to fall leaves was the envelope of leaves that bob's mom sent us in a mail packet-they were brown by the time they got there
  • dakota-my other washburn. i love that guitar
  • having the time to watch a sunset
  • silence
  • my computer-it's only purpose right now is a weight in my backpack-it's broke. i'm sad
  • uploading pictures to faceook (?)...i like to tell stories in pictures. that's not happening.
  • college football-got to watch the first alabama game of the season the other day-that's too many missed games.
  • star gazing...big time.
  • phone dates...
  • i miss being able to encourage my friends all the time-via sending them notes/cards, lots of mail, or just calling/texting them often. so if you read this, know that i miss you.
  • oh...last one. i miss not having to make decisions and schedules-what ever happened to spontaneous decision making and living by the seat of your pants?
that's a long enough list. know that in light of it all, i feel a much higher calling to be here living for Christ and doing His work. i'm already starting to wonder about next year...and i'm just hoping for the Lord's perfect plan to be revealed. i'm also getting more and more pumped for india. i know it'll be incredible. love from nebraska.
