One of my friends recently informed me of the art of flirting via text. And so I googled it, like any normal person would do. Google says,"Do you mean: flirtexting?"
Oh goodness.
Just me. Documenting the crazy twists and turns, the blessings and the sorrows, the ordinary and the extraordinary of my life.

Back in Clemson
I am now back at Clemson and re-settled into my lovely apartment. Sadly, Laura and Sara are not here, but it has been really fun getting to know Hannah and Alison. In Clemson, I am much more disciplined. I think it has to do with being back in my own space and having a place for everything in that space. It's so nice!!
I am, however, so ready for classes to start. I am bored!! I want work. Today I even broke open the software that came with my anatomy book and began doing the online lectures. I love the human body--what an awesome creation!!
I am so content with where the Lord has me this year--the place of duty is indeed the place of blessing. I have finally stopped pushing against the Lord's will--I am not dating, I am not going to PA school a year early, I am not working, I am not taking on extra coursework. I feel as though the door to every strong desire I had this summer has been slammed in my face. And now that I have stopped pushing I am content. I know that the Lord has better things in store for me than what I wished for this summer. His will is perfect. His plan is perfect.
"If I could have the world and all it owns, a thousand kingdoms, a thousand thrones. If all the earth were mine to hold, with wealth my only goal. I'd spend my gold on selfish things without the love that your life brings just a little bit more is all I'd need 'til life was torn from me. . . But if I trust the One who died for me, who shed His blood to set me free, If I live my life to trust in you, Your grace will see me through."

Square Peg, Round Hole
I feel like dating for me is a very square peg, round hole thing--for the moment. I feel like the Lord is saying, "Catharine, you can push and push but it just won't fit. Wait on me." So I'm waiting and trying to keep in mind that my life is not on hold. I am single, yes, but I have tons to offer. I am marketable to life and to the world as myself, without anyone else. I'm reminding myself of that and trying not to waste my energy pushing against that peg.
