Homesickness

As many know, I go to Delta State University which is two hours away from Vicksburg. Too add to the scenario, I do not own a car. Not complaining about it or anything.  But anyways...I haven't been able to go home in quiet a while. Its been about five weeks, but who's counting? Slowly but surely I am finding freedom in it. Not saying it was easy because it isn't at all. The third week was absolutely terrible. I had a lot of fundraisers that I was in charge of that I could have gone better had I been able to concentrate on what I was supposed to be doing and not how badly I wanted to go home. And it pains me to think that I may be the reason of an unsuccessful fundraiser because of my homesickness. But there is nothing I can do about it now except learn from it. I was able to pour myself into others and my schoolwork. Wrote the best papers while homesick. Being able to do that made me feel accomplished. I felt as if I was conquering my homesickness which I thought would bind me FOREVER. Thank God...not even kidding, but thank God I am finding freedom in all of it. And this thought just puts a big smile on my face! A huge smile on my face! Getting rid of one more chain is absolutely beautiful. 

But I finally get to go home for a night. I get to see my daddy, brother, and mom on Friday morning(ish). Aren't they just the sweetest people I get to go home to for an evening? Haha...if you only knew. Anyway, I am officially on Spring Break and I am looking forward to the time I get to spend with them and the time I get to spend with friends in Arlington, TX @ Mission Arlington. A blog will soon come about how all of that went! Later bloggers
