Last day at work

I finished my last day at work today. I feel happy and sad. Happy that I don't have to harass the tourists to get their picture taken while at dinner. Sad that I'm saying good-bye to friends. The end of one chapter and the beginning of another. Of course it makes me think of that Robert Frost poem.... Okay... here it is. :)

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black,
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back,

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence;
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference.
***
Seems very appropriate today!

Another Quote

Here's two great quotes from the Lord of the Rings....

Frodo: I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened. Gandalf: So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

"It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to."

Those seem appropriate for today! :) I'm excited about walking out my door and being swept off somewhere.... AND.... I need to decide what to do with little time that has been give to me in my life! :)

Each day I grow more and more excited about my trip!!! :) Today a friend called and asked if I could teach a basic photography seminar to some missionaries in Colombia!!! I am soooo excited and a little overwhelmed. I need to pray that the Lord will show me what will be the most helpful things to share and that I will be able to present those things in the best possible way! :) I am soooo thrilled at the thought of the Lord using my talents!!!! :) :) :)

Okay folks here is my prayer request for today.... please pray that I will be able to sell my car and for a good price before I leave. :) I've got about 12 days!!! Our God delights in coming through in impossible situations so lets watch Him do what He does best!!!! :)

Okay signing out! :)

"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat."
