Humm...Hmmm

Well..it sure is amazing how fast time flies when you are not paying attention! This last year has gone so fast! I've loved New Zealand, and I love it even more because I know that we are returning in September.
This week has been a really good week, I've learned a few really important lessons.

Number One: When you are sick, let your body heal! Ugh! Definitely don't go for a jog right when your almost almost better...cause it will kick you in the butt! Ugh! Also, parasailing and canyoning don't help either...being in the cold wind, or cold river bed.....just makes things worse! Today is my tenth day of being sick...and it sucks. So....hopefully this will go this time. I am feeling better already....and don't wanna push my luck anymore.

Number Two: Taking cold and flu medicine really numbs your sensory nerve endings! So if you take them and then get in a river that is glacial fed...it may not feel so cold...but when no one else can do it, I am sure it can't be that good for your body if your the only one ok. lol. Good thing I didn't jump in!

Number Three: No matter how good or long you keep your deepest darkest secrets, they still eat you from the inside out. Me and Trav went for a hike the other day, and Trav started talking about his passions such as raft guiding and what he see's for our future. I was so moved and inspired...especially when we started talking about Regeneration, that I couldn't keep anything else inside. So it all came out, and now I just can't get over....why I didn't do it sooner. I am so scared that I am not truly regenerated......our eternal destiny is of here and now importance. I have to work on completely re-vamping so many habits, characteristics, etc that I have acquired over my life. And I am sure of only one God that can do that.......because he who began a good work in me will continue it unto completion! Can I get an Amen!

Also, I have a lot of decisions to make in the next few days too...do I continue my two study courses? What job do I need while i am back home? Should we tour Thailand? Oh...so many!

We are returning home on Feb 16th! So not long now!

Also! Travis' cousin Pepper Harlton is going to the World Cyclo-cross Championships in Belgium right away, (I actually think she is there now) ....so check it out and cheer her on : http://www.pepperharlton.blogspot.com/

Well have a good one!

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. ~Nelson Mandela
