this marks the last entry of this 'work in progress' blog as well as my last night in the office. it only seems fitting that as one chapter in life closes, i end it the same way it began. [see here]

tomorrow is my last day of work and it's easy to forget this entry is just a stepping stone as all the other have been and no more or less significant. just another step towards something i don't yet know. in 16 days, 16 hrs, 14 min, and 44 sec my journey begins towards india. i should probably be scared or anxious, nervous or fearful, but i am surprisingly calm...exhausted from this last week of work, but still at peace. it is a peace knowing i am doing exactly what i need to do and going where i've been called to go.
that is enough.

i apologize for not sharing more of this preparation process with you. i have been like an iceberg, 10% above the surface and 90% below. you've witnessed the 10, my journal and i the 90. ah well. know that the other 90 has been good.

i'm surrounded now by a bare desk and heavy boxes of books. there are a few construction document sets waiting to go home with me for i couldn't throw them away yet...they were some of my first. i know it will be like those projects in the first years of studio, saved for a time until i'm ready to laugh at them from a more experienced view. it's time to make my way to the car and home. india is calling tonight and i'll hear my team's voices for the first time. i don't want to be late.

i look forward to the stories He will soon tell.
