I feel at peace here. I go to church and there are people to hug and love me. I get to love on people who I have invested a lot of time and energy into. I go to lunch and have real, intimate conversations with people who care about me. I have people who look up to me and expect me to do the right things. I get to spend time with Tommy and Jessica and learn from them. Tommy calls me out and keeps me accountable. Jessica asks challenging questions in the least intimidating way. They both ask to spend as much time with me as possible. My dad whines whenever I go anywhere that is not by his side. I get to hear him speak on what he is most passionate about, our Savior. My mom and I go on walks and just talk about life. She tells me how proud of me she is every chance she gets
. Even when I don't feel like I deserve it. They all support me and love me unconditionally. They all are incredible examples of living a life for the Lord to me and everyone that comes in contact with them. Not to mention.JPG)
Memphis Pizza Cafe, Jerry's Sno Cones, Tiger basketball and kind of football(love you daddy), Molly, Krissy, Memphis(dog), Runyon, culture, Sunday lunches, the Stirring, G&T with mom, I could go on forever.
I am moving to Portland in October in order to be challenged and to grow on my own. To become a stronger and more motivated person. I know I should be able to be challenged without moving across the country, but hell, what fun is that? :) I'm not saying I expect a transformation of myself, I just want a challenge and an adventure. Plus, I picked Portland because it is the safest place out of my comfort zone. Having Avery and Destiny there is going to allow me to have the support system I have a feeling I will need. Plus, I get to hang out with them whenever I want. I get to experience an entirely different culture. I'm 23 and have the rest of my life to be married or pursue a career. I'm ready to do this.
