#Blessed
It is crazy to think that this time last year I was a senior at Vanguard University. It was exactly one year ago today that performed my senior project. A year ago I was just another Musical Theatre major gearing up for graduation and unknowns that followed. The year that followed my graduation was filled with being a Camp Counselor in Maryland at Camp Sonshine, traveling throughout the east coast, studying musical theatre in New York and building relationships with some of the most amazing people. Those three months were a dream come true. After that I went through the darkest time. Between lack of funds and failed auditions my morale was becoming lower and lower. Don’t get me wrong God provided me with awesome shows to be apart of and I have made the most incredible friends.
As I look back at my conversations with God I can recalled how frustrated and lonely I was (and at times I still am). I wondered where the God of mercy and grace was. I was wondered why during my most vulnerable season of my life that He seemed so distant.
Things are getting better though. Although that might be because my attitude has shifted to joy rather than stay in the world of self-pity. I am in a place of enjoying everything that has been put in front of me. I am still shooting for the stars and carrying love on my sleeve. I will fall along the way but YOLO.
Updates of this summer’s adventure to come!
