Faith, Trust & Pixie Dust

Are you scared?

Are you excited?

Are you sad?

Are you happy?

When people ask me these questions, I usually answer yes to all of them. Now that I have less than a month until I leave, a whole mix of emotions has me bouncing off walls with excitement, crying, and panicking about all the things I have yet to do.

I've never been a homebody, but I've never been a wanderer either. I often have people tell me that they'd love to live in a different country or city, anywhere far away from here. As for me, I'm content living in my hometown, surrounded by family, familiarity, and comfort. Sure, Orlando isn't that far away. Its still in North America. But the mere fact of moving away from my family, my friends, my job, my church, is sometimes terrifying.

Lately the main thing I've been worried about is putting my life on hold for a year. Am I being irresponsible for not going back to school? Am I running away only to work at a theme park? Am I giving up the opportunity of being in love? What if by going away, I'll lose my friends? These are the questions that have constantly been racing through my mind. But at the same time, utmost joy is taking up the other half of my heart.

I get to work at the happiest place on earth. I get to be a part of creating magic for kids. I get to make new friends from all over the world, and live and work with them. I get to see what its like to live away from home, discover new things about myself. I get to have as much fun as I choose. I get to start a new life. Though it may only be for a year, for a brief moment in time, I get to live a dream.

I don't know why God has led me to go at this time, as there are many things that seem to be going wrong. But as I've said before, His timing is perfect. And His plan is always better than our own.

This leaves me with a choice. Though we may not be able to choose what happens to us, or when; we can choose how we respond. I can choose to stay, and live my comfortable life, or I can take the leap, and live out this one-in-a-lifetime opportunity I've been given.The following verse is above the door in my room:

"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid, or discouraged. For the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9

So with a bit of pixie dust, and a whole lot of faith, I think I'm gonna be just fine. :)

Love love love,
