Life is Crazy Busy Right Now, and That's Okay


Holy cow, I'm not sure how much one person can really fit into a day.  But, I am trying to get as much as I possibly can.  Camp is in full swing as we are into crunch time, big time.  A week from now we will be there.  Heber Valley Camp Sariah.  We have planned for this, prayed, worked and now all those efforts are coming together.  I will catch up on all of this when I return.  But, for now, I have survived the overnight hike that was 5.86 miles uphill both ways, carrying about a 25 lb. backpack.  I am glad I did it.  I can say that it was hard, and that it was something I don't think I could have done a year ago.  And, although I was extremely tired on Saturday night, due to no sleep from the uneven ground, I was not sore the next morning.  I am certain it is from all the workouts I have gone to each and every morning.  It has paid off, tenfold.  So, until July 3, I most likely will not be on here, but I will be back with a full and detailed report of life in general.  I have to admit, I would not have petitioned to have this calling in anyway, however, if there is not anyone who is touched or changed from this whole experience, this has deeply touched and changed, me.  I am a better person because of this.  And for that I have to say, I am grateful.
