I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. And I don't want to get to the end, or to tomorrow, even, and realize that my life is a collection of meetings and pop cans and errands and receipts and dirty dishes. I want to eat cold tangerines and sing loud in the car with the windows open and stay up all night laughing and paint my walls the exact color of the sky right now. And I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift.

community.
Every year that I have worked at a Young Life camp, right before I leave I get really weird. I LOVE working at YL camps and at these camps are some of my most favorite memories. I know this is true, and always, right before I go, I think to myself "Why am I doing this? Why am I leaving? I LIKE IT HERE. I have awesome friends, a better community than I ever would have imagined, people know me and understand me and love me. Why am I leaving?" That's how I feel right now. After about an hour at Castaway I will change my mind, but until Wednesday when I leave I will feel like this.
