18For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by appealing to the lustful desires of sinful human nature, they entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error. 19They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity—for a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. 20If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. 21It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them. 22Of them the proverbs are true: "A dog returns to its vomit,"and, "A sow that is washed goes back to her wallowing in the mud."
- 2 Peter 2:18-22

| With every week, the restlessness grows...the yearning for change, for personal progress, for better things...
and I can't help but feel that the new year, true to form, will bring about an even greater, more irresistible desire to change the pattern of how my life has been these past few months.
I want to know for sure that my bachelor's degree is more than just a piece of paper.
...that the time when I can permanently be with the one I love is not just a dream.
...that there's more to adult life than just this.
I wanna kick off my shoes and take off running.

| I look back on all the Christmases when I was either lonely or heartbroken, hoping - despite any amount of contentment in my walk with God or any self-assuredness that single women can be truly happy - for the one who I could cuddle by the fireplace or exchange presents with or kiss under the mistletoe.
Pure cheesiness, but you have to admit, it's hard not to think that way!
Which is why this year, I am so thankful to have you.
You make the most wonderful time of the year the most romantic. | | |
| Bitterness is poison to the soul.
So why do I refuse the antidote? | | |
| Ever get the feeling you should be somewhere else?
After meeting up with college friends, reminiscing a life that was constantly full and exciting, and spending a weekend in the city by the Bay I love so much, I can't help but wonder what I'm still doing here.
Although home is here with family, church and people close to my heart, I know for certain that I belong somewhere else now. And it's only a matter time before I get to return.
