well, today is the beginning of a change for me. i'll start with some background.
i never intended to move to arizona, however a good job opportunity kind of fell into my lap, and so being the spontaneous person i am, i jumped in. so for the last 5or 6 months I have been working at that job. from the start i could tell it wasn't a fit for me, however i was learning a lot and determined to stick it out as long as i could.
since then things have been hard for me. between spending most of my awake hours at a job i am unhappy at, having very few friends in this state who are not married, trying to adjust to post college life, some unexpected relationship drama, and feeling a general lack of independence due to living with my parents; things have definitely been tough.
this last month i reached a place where i realized i just wasn't very happy, and it was getting worse not better. and i am a firm believer that if you are unhappy, it is your responsibility to fix it, not just sit there doing the "woah is me" dance. so that's what i'm doing.
today i gave two weeks notice, making the 14th my last day of work. i have no set plans after that except a long overdue vacation to go see my nephew, then thanaksgiving with the fam. december will largely be my "operation figure out my life" month. and hopefully january will be the beginning of a new chapter.
the options right now are pretty endless. i am 95% confident i will be moving out of Phoenix. beyond that, these are some things i'm considering.
-move back to LA
-go work abroad for a while
-do a ywam dts
-go back to school somewhere
-become a flight attendant
-become a homeless person (just kidding)
but seriously, there are a lot of big decisions i am going to need to be making in the coming months. i would be grateful to any of you who would be willing to pray for me during this time.
you can specifically pray for:
-that God would clearly reveal the direction He would like me to go in.
-wisdom and discernment for myself to hear God when He tells me, and obey.
-more faith. i can always use more faith. (i'm a worrier)
-that some "in the meantime" money opportunities would present themselves so I can at least be bringing some income in.
-my insurance/cobra would all work out so i can continue all the different doctors/meds/etc that are a part of my life right now.
thanks everyone. love you!
