Hana is going camping ...

SO,

I am about to embark on, what is pathetically, my first "camping trip".
Now I am not a "camping person"; I like electricity, and air conditioning, and beds; not to mention solid buildings and bug-free accommodations. But a girls got to grow up sometime, and I'm eighteen years old, so I can do this. I think.
But really, this is going to be fun, camping-out with my bestie; it's a new experience, a chance to grow. AND I get to get away from here for a little while, so that's a good thing.
I need this.
I need to get away from here.
If only for a few days.
If only to catch my breathe.
If only to hear God's voice again...

And We're Spinning

Well, I am currently stuck in bed, feeling like I'm on a never ending carousel ride..


To put it bluntly:
this sucks.

Love Extravagantly

1 Corinthians 13.13
‘Three things.. Trust steadily in God, hope unswervingly, love extravagantly. And the greatest of these is love.’


'Love extravagantly.' Do you know what extravagantly means? It means to exeed reasonable bounds. Boy, I wish I could love like that... Some days I find it hard to even 'like' someone, let alone, 'love' them.

Love.

Such a small word for such a big action.
