Get me out!


I haven't been this ready for an escape in a long time. Spring Break is agonizingly close. I can feel my body waiting for spring to be permanent, for the sunshine to be the normal, and for blue skies to be my everyday again. I need to get in my boat and paddle. I need to stop studying. And I need to escape.
As blasphemous as those needs may sound, they feel true. I am ready for spring break to be here. Two more days and two more tests to go, and then we can drive. The water awaits me and the Smokies are calling my name. I am just ready for time with my God and the friends He has so graciously provided me. No more books and emails or classes to go to. Just for a little while. Oh! how I am ready.
