The time has finally come! I head to Florence, Italy tomorrow in search of so many things... adventure, learning, language, culture, discovery, friendship, and most of all, myself. I attended my parents' church service yesterday at Harrisonburg (VA) Baptist Church. There was a point in the service where they introduced a new mission statement -
Pray. Dream. Act. How apropos for what I'm about to do!! I certainly
prayed about taking this MAJOR leap of faith for almost 2+ years,
dreamed about doing something so far outside my comfort zone that I can only hope to find my way back (if really necessary), and finally found the courage to
ACT upon it. I'm not sure where I've gotten the nerve to do something that so many have said "Wow, that's certainly a bold thing to do!" But thanks to my friends and family for their support as I embark on this Great Adventure!! Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I journey throughout Italy over these next 90 days using the Light of the Tuscan Sun and the Lord as my compass.
