only love can leave such a mark.

i'm back in perth. a year ago this time i was back in toronto wondering if my dream would ever become a reality. needing thousands of dollars to do the birth attendant school in perth and filled with all kinds of doubts, fears and uncertainties.

i made it.

i survived.

and while it was a difficult and challenging year, i have come out of it with all kinds of new perspectives and dreams for my life... i have gained understanding, knowledge, hope and vision for the future. my view of god has been challenged and expanded. my view of the world has been broadened. my view of myself and my capabilities has changed. i could say a million different things about what i've seen and learned over the course of this year. so much to say and no idea where to even begin.

2010 was hands down the most difficult year of my life so far. i feel like i can face just about any challenge after the things i lived through last year. i came to this school completely broken and desperate for god. desperate to get away from the mess that my life had become and to find hope and healing. in his patience, kindness, and grace, god did it.

there is so much more to be said. but for now, my mind is too full and my articulation inadequate...

whatever is to come next? i say.. bring it on.
