new adventures..

A few days ago I put in my 2 month notice at the apartment I'm living in. What does that mean? For starters, that I'm scared out of my mind. AND...That I'm leaving Fargo. I'm saying goodbye to this town and to what it can offer me. I'm saying goodbye to college life and I'm saying goodbye to friends and family for a while. I'm going to take an extended trip to Africa, Arusha Tanzania specifically and see what else this world can offer. 

It's time for an adventure, time to make stories of my own. Over the years while sitting in my college classes, countless professors have stood before me and told me stories of their youth. "When I was in the Peace Corp in Guatemala....When I lived in Spain...When I was traveling through Indonesia...When I lived in ___(fill in the blank)______..." We all know the stories. The stories you think "Wow, what an amazing experience, I wish I could do that..."  It's the time in my life where I want to make stories of my own. I want to experience life abundantly and explore this world that God has created for us. It's time that I take a leap of faith and trust that I can take a step away from my comfort zone and delve into the unknown. 

It's an exciting time, but also bittersweet. Going along my days knowing that I'm heading out of here in 2 months is crazy, but all the more reason to make the most of it while I'm here. The friends I've made here have become my family. I know that though I will leave Fargo physically, the people who are important to me will remain in my life for years to come. There's comfort in knowing that the people in Fargo, won't hear goodbye, but just see ya later! :) Cheers to good friends and new adventures.
