I havn't posted on here in an eternity. Who knows if I'll be posting more regularly, but I thought that I would just put a bit of an update on my life on here, so that if someone looks at it, they will know that I still am living and didn't fall of the edge of the planet in all my crazy adventures!
I am now entering into a new adventure, one that is unlike the previous. The other day, I was talking to Maria about how I sometimes wish that I had decided to go away for school, or that I wish I was going away again. I was expressing how sometimes I wish I could just go away, and leave all the responsibilities and committments I have and just start fresh. She challenged me to pretend that I was going away and to pretend that I was starting over again in a new place. Well, to make a long story, abit shorter, I have decided to take her up on her challenge. I have decided to take start over and recharge this battery that has been over used. I am moving away, (in a sense) and am taking a step back from all responsibilities, (youth, YFC, etc.) and committments. This has been a very hard decision to make, but reflecting back on the summer, the past couple of weeks, and looking into the future, it has been made clear that I need to take some time for me and take some time to refill this cup that is bone dry.
It is an adventure. Everything can be an adventure. It is an adventure trying to figure out what to do with free time; how do I handle a schedule that has every evening open? How do occupy my time? If you know me at all, you are probably thinking, "Suzanne, you have no problem filling up your time, and you are going to have every night full within a week. In no time you will have things to do, and will feel like you don't have any free time." This is all true, but I am committing to not committing to anything for awhile. I'm just going to enjoy life, and take things as they come. I am going to try to live the first part of my moto to the fullest: Live SPAFE: SPONTANEOUS yet safe.

Resist the urge to fill your time. You will find yourself sitting in your room staring at the wall and you will feel as though you are ridiculously bored with life. But you've been so trained to believe that every instant should be filled with something, that when it's not, something is wrong.
It's not boredom. It's freedom. And for some reason it's sort of hard to be free.
