1 Month

In one month I will be at the Detroit Airport, waiting in line to recieve my boarding tickets to fly to Nagoya then onto Manila, and lastly home at last --Davao! I'm really ready just to get out of here. I'm ready to get out of the dorms, out of classes, out of this whole setting I'm in right now. Questions have been going through my head....about my friendships, about what I want to do with my life, internships, next summer, faith - spiritual development, personal goals, classes...I'm burned out.

This summer, my goal is to refresh and renew my mind. I feel that is what I need. Recently I looked over some goals that I wrote for myself at the beginning of the year and since then it shows that I have lost focus. I've really had a great year, it's been great making new friends and developing relationships. However, my mood seems to change quickly from being happy to being bored and not caring. I need time away and I need to set aside time with God.

I am very excited to see my parents and eat some real food! I will miss my friends from SAU of course but I hope this summer I will grow in different areas - I need spiritual development, I need to work on myself, I need to renew my mind and way of thinking. Am I selfish?
