Lover of Leaving

"Come, whoever you are!

Wanderer, worshipper,

lover of leaving" - Rumi

Well, tomorrow I leave for mission orientation. Been spending most of the day at one with the computer, organizing pictures and buring mp3 discs--music for the next few months. Getting the last sip of technological pleasures before I put off into the Deep. Haven't even started packing.

I'm not nervous. Just feel rushed, which is good I guess. I'm used to the comings and goings that this life has afforded me. Still I gotta say that tomorrow is a big day. Three years in the Unknown. God know's where it'll take me. But I'm sure it will be good.

Hopefully this Blog thing will be a good way to be connected with all you guys, wherever you are. It means a lot to me to be friends with such great people out there, and to know that to some extent you can follow me along this journey. Come, take my hand, and let us fly! jk

Seriously though, if you are reading this, chances are you have blessed my life greatly and I thank you. It is a wonderful and holy thing, this life! Keep it real, my bredren. I'm going in.
