Back In B-Town...

Where to start, where to start?... hmmmm.... Well I suppose there is a beginning, but I have no clue where it begins for this story. Needless to say, I have moved back to Boise, or B-Town as I like to call it. I have just recently turned 26 and time is not slowing down for me these days. There were a lot of reasons that brought me back here to the 208, living in the particular area of Washington that I was residing was dreadful for me and bringing me down and out of who I am at the core. I was missing out on being a part of my nieces lives and watching them sprout up off of the ground like weeds and also seeing my family and friends that I had left behind. There were also some personal family issues that needed my attention.

When I had originally moved to Washington it was because I thought that my life in B-Town was sub-par and I wanted a change of scenery in my life. I will be the first to admit that i moved without really considering what moving would entail for me, I was naive and did not really pray about if God was really wanting me to move away. In retrospect I clearly see that he allowed for me to move, and has brought me back to what I can truly call home. I have realized that the place where you live may initially seem very unappealing and dreadful, however until you move to a place that is far worse you cannot fully appreciate where you have spent most of your life at.

My goal is to go back to school sometime soon and continue to study history and pursue art to keep my creative side alive and challenge myself in learning new mediums and techniques. God willing, I will also end up doing his will in my life and be able to bring him glory so that he may say well done my good and faithful servant.

time for a poem...

When I see your smile, it merely leaves me speechless,
Your beauty gives me butterflies.

I hope to see my future someday,
When I look into your eyes.

But for now I will keep things hidden,
I shall admire your beauty and take it to heart.

Listening, learning in the silence,
So that knowing you would make me smart.

Someday I will have the courage,
The courage to express my feelings for you.

Hoping,
Hoping that you will have those feelings too.

... In closing, it is good to be back in B-town, and I hope to see you around. Until next time.
