NGA is leaving in TWO DAYS for Thailand! Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers. Love you all. Eternally, Audrey | | |
| There is so much to be said and shared about NGA. I've learned and grown so much in these past few months. I am so grateful to God, True Parents, and NGA for every moment of my new life. For anyone interested in hearing more, I'll be giving a full presentation (with pictures and everything  )during adult Sunday school at church this Sunday in LA. I will also have a table set up after church with more information/literature. I will also be collecting donations for anyone interested in helping my team raise money to go to Sri Lanka in April where we will be doing a month of service work. Your support would be greatly appreciated, so be there!  Eternally, Audrey | | |
| I'm leaving for Seattle in a couple days. This may be my last xanga entry for a while, but I'll update when I can. It feels as though there is a whole rage of emotions fighting for space inside of me, kicking a screaming to be heard and felt. One second I'm laughing so hard I'm crying and the next second, I really am crying... I feel so emotionally unstable. But I feel confident that I made the right choice. I know I will learn a lot. And though I will miss everyone terribly, good-bye is not forever. As I heard someone say once, it's more like "see you later." Stay in touch. Much love, Audrey | | |
| This summer has proven to be an amazing journey for me. Emotionally, spiritually, even physically. For a while I was feeling pretty apathetic about life, I didn't feel the same hope and excitement that I used to feel. I was just going through the motions, living day in and day out without really thinking about what I wanted from life and what God wanted from me. But as I near the end of summer and the end of my dependent life at home, I've begun to realize some things. In trying to find meaning in everything that is about to happen, everything that is happening, things are begining to become clear, and I feel a new life awakening within me. In this moment, I feel I could tackle anything. I do not yet know what God wants me to do, but I do know that He wants me to do something--something meaningful. Life is not just meant to be walked through. Life is meant to be experienced. Every single moment of it. I found this quote in a book I'm reading: "For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin--real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be got through first, some unfinished business, time sitll to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life." -Alfred D'Souza This is exactly how I feel. For most of this summer and for most of my life, I've been waiting for life to happen. As if a path would open up and life would begin. But I realize now that this IS life. And I have to make every moment count. | | |
| I withdrew from Cal. I'm so glad that's done. Now I can really focus on the task at hand. There's still much prep to be done before I leave. I don't think it's really hit me yet. I'm going to miss everyone. And I won't be seeing any Nor Cal-ers for almost a year... But I will be living amongst you once I move in at Cal. :) All of it just seems so unreal. I can't believe it's happening... I still have a few more weeks. Love you guys. | | |
