2014 In Review

Wow, what a year 2014 has been! So much has happened within the span of 12 months. The biggest thing that happened to me was starting medical school abroad. This was my first time away from my family and my first time traveling outside of the country. I feel so blessed and humbled to have this opportunity. This new chapter in my life has increased my faith and trust in God. When I think about the goodness of Jesus and all that He has done for me my soul shouts....Hallelujah! Medical school is a journey; I started mine 7 years ago. Over the years I have not only developed intellectually but emotionally and spiritually as well. My outlook and perspective on the world is so much different than it was 7 years ago. I have such an appreciation for the little things in life, I try to aim for simplicity as much as possible. I want my life to be a testimony to others that all things are possible if you put your mind to it and keep God first. My road less traveled has not been a cakewalk but I wouldn't trade it for the world.
 
I wish all of you a wonderful and productive New Year; may Heaven smile upon you.

Christmas Eve

I wish all of you a peaceful and joyful holiday season. I feel so blessed to be surrounded by loved one's at this time of year. Yesterday, I did some Christmas shopping with my younger brother and visited his new apartment. Later that evening I went out with my sister, it felt so good to catch up; she's my best friend, we are 1 year apart! I missed my CrockPot while I was away; I made veggie soup! My older brother was on a road trip with family and didn't get back until today. The first thing he did was make me lunch, it was delicious! We sipped on egg nog and enjoyed each others company, today has been amazing. Next stop, my hometown :)
