The one that wanders is not lost....really?

One of my favourite quotes is one by Tolkin - "And the one that wanders is not lost".
It's been a little while. I've been floating around in my own little world, not really taking too much notice of anything really, and I've pretty much hated doing that. Life is so much better when it's enjoyed! I remember a conversation I had with a friend of mine a while ago, about knowing Jesus, but just really wanting to FEEL. Maybe I'm feeling a bit like that at the moment, just like I'm wandering through life, when really I should be wondering through life.

The last few weeks have seriously, no cliche intended, been a bit of a roller coaster. I'm learning to...learn. I like this. I guess I've been on this road..of learning..for a long time, and that's what's so great about it...I'll never stop learning. Awesome.

Been thinking so much about China, and probably too much about Perth lately. It's hard.

I'm listening to the rain right now. I can't remember the last time it's rained this hard. Usually I like the rain, I love walking in the rain if I'm all wrapped up with an umbrella, but today none of that worked. On my 50m walk, I was soaked through. Really, someone remind me why I live in this city! Although, my trusty red boots kept my feet snuggly warm and dry. Red boots save the day once again it seems.

Little smile moments from my week:
Booking flights to Perth to see some very awesome people. Only 85 sleeps to go, and counting!!
Getting a message from my sister-in-law (in Perth) telling me that she's been reading my blog. That was very very cool. Thanks Emily :)
Seeing a guy in the uni library with the same glasses as me. I felt awesome, and a little bit less like a four eyed geek.
Yesterday, taking the kiddies up Mt Roskill, and hearing these beautiful words come out of a nine year old... "I think God created things for a reason". I guess then...He made me for a reason too.
