nothing is impossible

ok, now everything i write, i'm worried that Johnny Han is going to think it's sick. haha sick nasty! so JUST FOR THE RECORD... "be contagious" means your life. your life should be and can be contagious. and it should be and can be to the best possible way. and how relevant is this statement after ELEVATEretreat. we are "larger than life"

like i wrote on my status, i feel like there are a million thoughts going through my head. so this post will probably make NO sense because i'm running off pure adrenaline and excitement and whatever the hell else.

ready...

set...

GO!

1. "larger than life" retreat was exactly opposite of what i expected. ask me if you want to know more. i'm too hyper to type it all out
2. can't believe i'm at work right now. this is not the job i want to be at. but i'm grateful. but i need to push! pushpushpush to do what i feel like i'm called to do!
   
3. i REALLY wanted a donut, and there are 2 boxes of krispy kremes at my office! but i'm not allowed to have it!
4. MOMMY AND BRUDDER ARE COMING BACK NEXT WEEK!<3333333333>
5. life doesn't change in a day. but... one's perspective can change to be the start of something amazing. BIG rock in the bucket :)
   
6. speaking of bucket...<3>
7. i like warm beds and blankets that are poofy so that i feel like i'm sinking in.
8. i think i should do one of those survey things cuz i feel like a spaz right now.
9. i love music. i know it is supposed to be something i do and have in my life. i will start now. any song suggestions, people? :)
   

ok no more list! but really... not everything is great. not everything is perfect. and even though the problems, thoughts, and feelings from last week are the same as this week... and even though i know that the same things that made me sad or cranky last week, will continue to make me sad or cranky this week, there is a new purpose for it all.

how is it that 13-14-15 year old students can make such an impact in my life? no, they aren't giving me advice. yes, sometimes i feel like a mother to them. but you look at their lives outside of the yelling, scolding, punishing, pushing around... and it's the type of life that says "i have a purpose". my greatest prayer is that this does not fade with age.. that the crap of this world doesn't make them jaded. i hope that it continues to challenge them.. so much so that it hurts. because strength will rise up from it.

so let's not be static. all of us. let's live a life that is contagious to other people. let's live a life with a rock in our bucket. (teehee... bucket...<3)>because even though there will be crap beyond measure, living with a rock in our bucket means we won't even have to ask the question "why?". no such thing as disappointment. just peace.
