Yikes... this all just became VERY real. I'm really doing this. On Wednesday I broke the news to my boss that I would be moving to L.A. at the end of August for the Servant Partners internship. It was surreal. But the last 2 years (almost) working at Michael Baker have been great! I've met some really amazing people, learned quite a bit about hydrology and hydraulics, became a Certified Floodplain Manager (oh yeah!), lost every single game on our office softball team, and survived MANY hours in a cubicle! But seriously, I'm so thankful for these last 2 years and will be very sad to leave Baker behind.
It was quite a rush quitting my job. I felt... excited, anxious, nervous, emotional, not sure what! But as I was leaving work that day, a song lyric came on the radio that really struck home, made me tear up, and gave me some much needed comfort.
♪♪ You will be safe in His arms
You will be safe in His arms
'Cause the hands that hold the world are holding your heart
This is the promise He made
He will be with You always
When everything is falling apart
You will be safe in His arms ♪♪
Amen to that. Thank you, Lord. I'm stepping out in faith, knowing that I am safe in your arms.
There is but a fleeting wind
ReplyDeleteA pallid thought arose again
In my heart, remembering
Your laughter
Like cherubic strummings
And in your mind the faithful hummings
Of a heart ready, true
At lease from my encumbered point of view
We melt away what is past
To become ourselves
At last, another iteration
To reach that perpetual sensation
And Oh! How it must be
When we transcend our misery
Through struggle and temporality
To avert the Original meloncholy
So off you go and sail away
On that Baby's Breath of breezes
Follow that which men have sought
And pray it is Life that seizes
Your hearts greatest wish
