Has it been this long since I've written on here? I apologize, faithful followers.
Having accomplished the whole schooling thing, the last two months have been spent in the following:
1. Graduate, spend time with family. Day after graduation, move to Chicago
2. Embrace the daunting task of starting my career
3. Send my resume to everyone who will take it and even some that don't
4. Repeat steps 2-3 for the past 2 months
At least this experience has confirmed my desire and love of working (though not overly so). In times when I will want to stay in bed, as it remains dark and frigid , these memories of summer will channel my thoughts and prayers of thanks will be repeated.
This experience has also allowed me to experience the "stay-at-home wife". No offense, as some women enjoy and should stay home. I, however, do not. Dishes? Laundry? Clean floors? Elves, where do you hide?
I don't mean to sound bitter. In fact, when I caught myself thinking those thoughts of neglect, unwant, and denial, I remind myself that God knows my heart and my desires. He has everything planned and has the perfect job for me. Just Wait. Be Patient.
Patience has always been something I thought I had. But I want to say, ok, I've been patient. I've waited. SO Hurry Up. (stomp stomp).
Whenever I do that, I hear Trust Me, you are meant for Great Things. (sigh, ok, I'll wait)
A reminder to myself that while I wait, this is time for my heart to open and to wait in joy, for He has great plans.
Anyways, bottom line. Wait. Patiently. Joyously. Trusting. Plus, summer in the city is the perfect time not to work!
