New Beginnings

This time next week I'll be leaving the comfort of the adult working world that i've known for the past four years to pursue my dream of becoming a designer. For much of my life, I've leaned towards this dream, and now it is suddenly at my doorstep. The closeness of the change has pressed itself hotly against my chest and i'm ready for it. You see, I've been a designer for much of my life, often without admitting it. As early as the age of ten, I was designing grassroots initiatives with the goal of making my neighborhood a more exciting place to live. However, the possibility of what looms ahead is also bit daunting. The path up until this point has often been one with contours easy to navigate, but it now feels like i'm going into the dark.

This transition involves a different kind of waiting, it is a waiting for becoming and belonging, a waiting for others to meet me in the places to which I have been called and to journey with me. Soon I will meet the people of Savannah and those students who are to be my classmates over the next two years. The journey will grow me and it will shape me, and the people whom I encounter will never leave me the same.
