Tuba Man...

So it was my last day of class today. Yay! When I walked out of my last class and was walking toward my dorm, I noticed a man. He was running. Typically this wouldn't catch my eye but this man was running with his tuba on his shoulders. It was one of the highlight's of my day. I wonder why he might be running so I made up a story. Here is what happened in my head... This man was walking to band practice with his tuba in its case in his hand. All was well until he met a rabid cartoon character, yep a rabid cartoon character. One that is like ADHD. It was going to bite him when the character noticed his case and wondered what was in the case. Then he got distracted again by the shoes this man was wearing and then he noticed his shirt. So while this character tries to steal his shoes and shirt the man opened the case and took out the tuba. With a snap of the case he had captured the cartoon character. He thought he was home free. No problem he can get another case. Little did he know the cartoon character had friends. The friends had watched it all happen, and so they started to chase this man with the tuba. The man realized what was happening about the time one jumped into his tuba. He managed to run and knock the character out of his tuba. He ran as hard as he could, and ran around the UC. He had lost them for the time being so he walked briskly toward the road turning around often to see if they had found him. When I walked out of the building he had just noticed that one of THEM had noticed him. So he took off running across the road. I walked to my dorm and am sitting here telling you this story. Only the Lord knows what his fate was. I hope that he didn't get attacked, or that he realized he was sleep deprived and it was all a figment of his imagination....Oh well, Good Luck Buddy!

I am thinking....

I am thinking...constantly. There is a story in my head that is building itself up. That is what I think about a lot most days.
With that their is a character in my head, and she does not want to stay there very much longer. But the scary thing is, is I feel that if I write her down suddenly her story and character won't be my idea or creation anymore. I think I am going crazy, haha. Just kidding. But I really can't wait to hopefully write her story down and then one day maybe be able to walk into a bookstore and see a book written about her with my name on the cover as the author!
I hope I am living my life in a way to make GOD proud of seeing his creation with his name stamped on my heart as the author. That's all for today...

He dances over me...

I am currently on the journey in realizing the way God is wooing me. I am learning the depths of the relationship I have with him. And I am becoming the woman he made me...
Wow its weird to say that, because I have never called myself a "woman." It always meant something deeper. Like there was some "secret" that I needed to learn before I could consider myself a woman. I feel like woman is a term of knowledge...a term of someone who has experienced life. Someone who has made her mistakes and is now living to not make them again, but she also doesn't dwell in them. She moves on and along the way, she uses that knowledge, that experience, to help other girls who are becoming women.
It takes me a while to realize what I am becoming. A couple of weeks ago, my dad made me listen to this song that talks about teaching their kids to fly and after that he and his wife will fly together. I asked my dad if him and my mom had taught me to fly. His response, "Your flapping your wings pretty hard." Translation-I am doing it. I am living my life, I am growing up, and while that is scary and sad to an extent, it is also exhilarating and joyful. It seemed like I wanted to grow up for so long and now that I realize that I have and am, I don't want to. :)
Its the same with being a woman, only now that I look back and see the differences there do I realize I am becoming that woman. It still may take time for me to say I am woman, but one day soon I will.
I only had the opportunity to realize this when I opened my eyes to the love God was pouring out on me. The opportunity to revel in his love and realize it was a far deeper relationship than when I was a GIRL. Wow...

God is Good. And I love him, he dances with me in my secret place...
XOXO,

"Oh the cleverness of me..."

So...another one. I was reading the quote that I put on this page and realized that I really liked it. (Well duh, I put it on there of course I liked it.) But I think it fits so well with my life. I have big dreams. I am working constantly to make them reality. It will be quite the adventure.
I want adventure in my life, I mean I am on the greatest adventure I will ever see. I am on a journey that God made for me and I am lucky I get to run across the people I know on this journey. Better than that, for whatever reason God has given me a very active imagination. So along this journey I am on, the exciting and dangerous things that we see in movies and read in books that I can't have, I get to experience them in the characters that come to life in my head. That excites me more than anything! So stay tuned because my adventures are fixing to explode all over the page and I can't wait.....
XOXO-Sara
PS- Peter Pan said it best in two different ways..."To die would be an awfully big adventure!"
Later...."To live would be an awfully big adventure!"
I personally plan on living forever what an adventure that will be, But I will also die and leave this earth behind and that will be a grand adventure as well!

Nodding My Head Like Yeah...

The other day I was hanging out with my friend Amanda and she pointed out that I hadn't written on here. Mainly because I feel like there is a lack of interesting things I could say. I don't want it to be ridiculous but I also really don't care. So I will try to write more in the future and hopefully I can find time in my week to sit down and write a few sentences. Until then....this was for you Amanda!!

XOXO-Sara....Yeah I just did that!
