Living in the Moment

A week from today, I will be on my way to Uganda.

One more week.

You'd think that at this point I'd be excited, ecstatic, so stoked to be leaving in just one week.

But to be honest, I'm not.

I have absolutely no feelings towards leaving. It's not that I don't want to go. I just have no emotions, good or bad, about going back. I'm sure that once I step off the plane and smell the smells, see the sights, and hear the sounds that have become so familiar to me and have brought me so much joy that's when all my emotions will come rushing back to me.

Excitement. Happiness. Passion. Joy. Love.

I'm looking forward to that moment. I can't wait for that moment. 

Until then, I have one more week to enjoy my life here and that's exactly what I'm going to do. I'm going to live in the moment and be excited for where God has me right now.
