Light at the End of the Tunnel

When you go through a long tunnel, especially when it's twisty and turny, you cannot see the light at the end -- where you'll end up, what it's like, and that there's an end to being in the dark.

I am finishing up my last two finals and am almost done with my preparation for them. This semester has been like getting on a roller coaster and just holding on because I have no idea how it's going to turn and dive and rise and accelerate. Now I'm approaching the junction where I'll get off again. (Although I'll be riding it a few more times in a row, don't ya think?) I'm finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, and now I can see where I've been and what has happened along the way. I have really put myself into my studies this year and as a result I have learned so much. I have especially loved Ed Psych and have grown a lot in that class. I can see that my efforts bring success in school and I am motivated to keep going, even though I have a few more dark tunnels ahead of me.

December

Christmas is coming, and never has the season been more beautiful than this year. Granted, there hasn't been as much snow as I would like, but the love that I have felt this season has been phenomenal. I have been so close to Christ, so close to Brian, and so close to my family. I feel truly blessed this season and cannot wait for all that Christmas brings.
