first things second...

or maybe it's second things first.

i am long overdue for an India post (one with words this time), but i'm not quite there yet. lots of contributing factors, but next week should bring the time, space and sanity needed to do the experience justice.

so this post will be a little bit more lighthearted, as it's all i can muster. thinking of you, julie lafleur.


after the cafe, i got to enjoy the view above for the rest of the day. outside of a little village in India, it was the most perfect day i've had in quite a long time. we played on the beach for awhile then sat at the bar on the patio at silver beach pizza. the air was perfect. the sun was perfect. the wind was perfect.

then we ended the day with this:


i'd had other plans for my sunday, but when the opportunity arose to just breathe... i took it. i'm so glad i did. thanks to my beach companions for making it all possible. i'm sure they didn't know how much i needed it.

friday marks the end of my three-year stint at habitat. not really sure what to say about that. it was a choice that was forced, after almost two-and-a-half years of wondering every day whether it would ever get better, or get back to the way it used to be. i have no idea what God has around the corner, but He's taken me here before. i love that i really want to trust Him, even in the times that i don't. i'm not always there. i have my moments. moments that are His.

i'll sign off with the words of a dear friend of mine.

not standing still.
