Today is October 2, 2013. On October 31, 2014, I will turn the ripe age of 30.
For someone who has only been graced 30 years thus far, the Lord surely has given me quite the adventure of a lifetime! I keep reminding myself that there is so much more to do, but I have many things I'd like to do before I turn 30. Some of those things are typical, like skydiving, going on a decent date, traveling to all 50 states (I only have four left. C'mon!).
Some of them are atypical for women my age. I'd rather not have a one-night stand. I want to speak to thousands of people about my life with Christ. I want to attend Divine Liturgy once and understand the differences between the Eastern Catholic and Western Catholic Churches. I want to go on a date with a future Saint. I want to love, truly give of myself, not just romantically (yeah, that'd be nice, but it's not the end-all), but I want to love my family, friends, roommates, coworkers, parishioners, and most importantly my God more selflessly. I want to better perfect my virtue. I want the world to know who Christ is through me, not just through my words. So, here's to a 13 month adventure through this blog.
"I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly."
