Well SUMMER is finally here. I took my last final today and I can say that it feels good to be done. It is a season of goodbyes and new beginnings. There have been some bittersweet moments. My Best Friend graduates this year and I feel a bit of sadness in realizing how fast time is flying bye.
I am glad that I will finally be in the final stretch of my college career. I am only 3 semesters away from finally fulfilling my life long dream of becoming a teacher. I can't wait to be in a classroom with my students and pouring into their lives and watching them grow into extraordinary men and women.
There are even some overwhelming feelings of the fact that every second of every day is flying by right before my eyes. I have come to a place where I just don't know what to think or sometimes don't even understand the circumstances going on around me. I know that their our times in our life or most of the time that we are not supposed to understand but just continually trust God in all things. But there are some things that I wish I knew the answers to. Sometimes it seems that the situations or the things in my life that i know are supposed to be there are so close but yet so far away. Maybe the other side does not see it, however I see it in a different way and it is so hard sometimes to hold on. There are days I just want to give up because I feel I have been pushed so far, so far that i don't know how I would get back. I don't know what to think or believe except to believe what i know in my heart and what I feel. In the midst of it all I somehow seem a way to push through and make it back to the top, even if it takes forever, I know that in the long run the best things in life are sometimes worth waiting for even if you have to release them first they will eventually come back to you.
I will push through the rain and the storms and see the sunshine. I know that what is on the other side is far greater than what is going on right now. Sometimes you have to get out there and dance in the rain instead of waiting for the storm to pass......
The other day i thought of the song Somewhere over the rainbow and I read the words and expresses in some ways how I feel...
Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high.
There's a land that I heard of Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue.
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops, Away above the chimney tops.
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly. Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then - oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow,
Why, oh, why can't I?
Somewhere over the rainbow my dreams, hopes and visions are there. Sometimes it calls for waiting. sometimes it calls for pressing on. In all things my trust and hope is in God. I know the best is yet to come in all things :)
