Hello world, I'm back!

Wow, I know my last post says that it has been awhile, but this REALLY has been awhile. Life has held many adventures, challenges, laughs, tears, tantrums and leaps of joy since my last post. I won't go into detail - but it's certainly been interesting. My whole world fell apart and is now being rebuilt. Every plan that I had was stripped away and new passions, joys and plans have been set in place.
I'm now living on the Gold Coast, QLD. Today I began my Law degree! (OH...MY...GOODNESS.... i know!) ... So crazy! I'm officially one day into my Bachelor of Law/Criminology/Criminal Justice. I'm doing a 5 year degree in 3years, which means I study 48weeks of the year. My promise for this year is that "No Dream Is Too Big!" I totally believe it. I'm passionate about seeing an end put to the Human Trafficking industry. I'm passionate about being in a world where people are no longer bought and sold for slavery. I'm passionate about being in a world where people no longer need to turn to prostitution as a way of life. This is why I'm studying Law. Someone needs to put an end to this, why can't it be me? I long to be in a world that is free and is filled with people who know their identity and know the one who created them with divine purpose. Divine love. Divine life.




I'm attending a new church, with new people. The last 8 months or so has been a time of reassessing what I love, what I'm passionate about and where I want to go in life. It's been a time of realising what areas I need to grow in, places I need healing, finding my identity all over again and going back to my first love - Jesus.

The last little while I've become incredibly close with the local hospitals. My health has taken a dive to the ground, but I'm choosing to speak life and healing. I'm choosing to live life to the full, despite what my health is like. Soon I'll have surgery and soon I'll be better. Until then I'm on total and complete bed rest. I've been given permission to go to church once a week under the conditions that I don't drive there and I sit there and do nothing.

I'm thankful for new beginnings. For the incredible people that God has so strategically placed in my life. I'm thankful that He loves me, even when I doubt Him. He loves me even when I make stupid mistakes. He loves me. He loves me. He loves me.

Find what you're passionate about. Pursue it. Live your life to the full. It's so cliche, but you could get hit by a bus tomorrow. If that happened, what would you be remembered for? Forget about the problems that life brings, even just for 5minutes. Smile about dumb things. Be excited that you have air in your lungs. Do something today that you have never done before. Think something about yourself that you have always been scared to believe. I dare you. Branch out. Live life.
