It's really funny how life works itself out. I've always said to live life without a plan, and sure enough my point was proven. This all took started about 3 weeks ago, I was in Texas at LIFE camp with the Marianist, and sometime on the this 16 day retreat, I got a call and I had to answer it. And this wasn't a literal phone call, but more of those spiritual callings that can't be ignored. So, this blog is going to be my log of this big adventure that I am on, let me catch you up on things.
I am originally from Miami Shores, FL working as a dog groomer. This big calling that I am talking about, is getting an internship at the Marianist Family Retreat Center, in Cape May, New Jersey. This is a huge change in my life and it is a lot to deal with, but I am really excited about the move and about working in the retreat center. I leave in 7 1/2 weeks, on October 1st.
It's been a crazy couple of weeks, since this all started happening, today is 1 week since I have started telling my friends and such. There have been a lot of different reactions, some better than others. My thoughts are good, a few moments of sadness, the reality of saying goodbye gets to me. But just when those thoughts sink, something happens or is said that just reminds me why I am dropping everything I know and chasing something that I am not really sure what it is yet.
