I can't believe I haven't written in 10 days.
Every day thoughts cross my mind, photos cross my computer screen and incidents dance about my life and I want to write about them, yet I don't get around to it. Here I am, about to bring you the meandering thoughts my head is filled with.

With all of my heart, I want to travel. As this new year began the thought and desire to travel has become so prevalent with me. When I was little I play with my parent's passports looking at all of the stamps wondering when the day would come that I could make my way across the seas. I really don't think that I can express the feeling I get when I dream of little cobble stone streets in some far off town in spain, drinking wine with the italians and shopping the stores in Milan sipping cappuccinos in Paris. I want to visit all of the countries that I can, swim the waters in Crete, drive on dusty desert roads, scour the flea markets of New York, take pictures of the walker-bys in Tokyo. I long for the chance to pack my bags and fill my passport and journal my way through. I want to gather trinkets, rings, garments and memories from all of these places I will see. Concerts and coffee in Seattle, mountains in Colorado, potatoes in Idaho, Coachella and San Diego beaches, Chicago winds, ports in Maine, artsy friends in Williamsburg Brooklyn and bookstores in SoHo.
My life doesn't need to be sedentary, I am undoubtedly sure of that. I pray that soon I can fulfill what I hunger for.
I pray for the opportunity, I pray for correct timing, I pray for the resources, I pray for His provision. I want to see His creation!! I want to meet the people Christ cares about so very much, I want them to teach me their culture. Life should be lived and experienced- why not greet it with open arms?!!
