Myrtle Beach





On Saturday, we went to Myrtle Beach, which was so fun! We had a blast at Broadway at the Beach, which was a huge plaze type place with tons of different restaurants, shops, and night life! We danced the night away and were sweaty messes at the end of the night!

Beach Walk with V!





Vanessa came with me on the morning beach walk. Having her here made me realize just how lucky I am to be living the life I am living right now...if that makes any sense. We took a picture with Robert, who we made run...he is doing so amazing, it's unbelievable! Anyway, it was SO humid that morning, so we are all a bit sweaty! :)

Friday Night with V!




One of my bestest friends in the whole world came to visit me this past weekend. It was so great to have her here and really hard to see her go! We had a fantastic weekend together, although I'm afraid I was kind of a party pooper on Thursday and Friday nights because I am so exhausted by the end of the week...We went out for dinner on Friday night at the Bonefish Grill, which was amazing! And then we went to the ocean for some midnight frolicking...only it was only about 9pm - haha!

New Clarity! (a bit cheesy!)


It is raining here right now, so no 7am beach walk! Sad, that is usually a favorite part of my day! Anyway, I woke up this morning with a new sense of clarity. I feel like I have been living lately a little too cautiously. I have been questioning decisions and alternate possibilities in nearly every aspect of my life, which has caused me to doubt myself and my abilities. I have failed to trust not only myself but God, in that he would not lead me to anything he didn't think I could handle. Someone told me yesterday that (actually a lot of people have told me this lately) that it is okay if I don't know what I want to do with my life..she said as long as you know what you DON'T want to do, you will be just fine. This has caused a lot of thought provocation in this arena. I have no idea where this journey of life will take me and do not have a compass telling me which way I want to go, but I do have ideas of what direction I don't want to take, so that is better than nothing!
"You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life." I stumbled upon that quote this morning, and it sums up about how I feel right now. I need to take a step back, enjoy where I am in life and be thankful for all I am blessed with.
