I've never blogged before.
However, I've seen it done and have realized that maybe I have something to say to. I've switched schools, I've changed friends, and the things I thought at once were the most important aren't anymore.
Summer.
It changes everything. It's the time where life passes you by in an instant, and once you've realized 3 months have passed, you also realize you've changed a little bit. It's June, and I know I'm no longer the person I was in May. During school, I valued things. I valued money. Central Arkansas Christian became an oasis of people pleasing that wore me out on a daily basis. I'm no millionaire, but I do know how to be nice (and pretend like I know how to dance.)
Summer.
I'm letting go. My shoulders feel lighter. I am happier. I want to grow this summer. It no longer matters how much my jeans are, or where we go out to eat tonight. God's going to provide for me, He's already given me enough already. Life's no longer about me anymore, once I took my eyes off of myself, and directed my attention on my spiritual life things brightened up. I love the feeling of selflessness. I can breathe better and smiling at everyone seems to come naturally.
Summer.
It's hard for me to grasp the idea that my feet will not step on Central Arkansas Christian soil this year. I've gone to the same school since 2nd grade. Crazy. Drastic change takes my breath away, but I've never felt so good about a single decision. I'm glad to be away, I love the idea of starting out fresh. The idea of new people, teachers, and being 1 of 750 juniors feels like jumping into a pool when it's still March. I'm starting out new, and life is absolutely wonderful.
In joy,
Kandace
