Eighteen

Less than a month until I turn 19.  If I had to pick one year that completely and totally changed my life, without a doubt it would be the eighteenth year of my life.  Sure, other years were special - kindergarten, eighth grade, high school.  I've learned so much throughout my life...  but no year brought greater lessons or changes than this past one.  

Remember When
~Leann Rimes~


Do you remember your imagination?
That Neverland was a destination
Your magical adventure isn't over yet
Just hold on tight and don't forget

Every wish
Every dream you ever had
Just close your eyes
And it will all come rushing back
Fly away
All you need is to believe and remember when
Ooh yeah

You never know where your dreams might take you
So keep them safe and sound don't let reality break you
Feel your sweetest memories come and carry you away
Just get lost in yesterday

Every wish
Every dream you ever had
Just close your eyes
And it will all come rushing back
Fly away
All you need is to believe and remember when

Surrender to the innocence
You thought you left behind
And reach the child that lives inside

Every wish
Every dream you ever had
Just close your eyes
And it will all come rushing back
Fly away
All you need is to believe and remember when

Fly away
All you need is to believe and remember when

Remember when...


I learned to trust God.  Because no matter what I wanted, I seemed to get the opposite.  Until He showed me that His plans are above mine.  It doesn't change the hurt, but it explains it.  It doesn't mean I don't miss what I had, but it allows me to appreciate it.  And somehow, I've found something better.   So, when I thought I had lost it all... I discovered that God preserved what really mattered... and gave me so much more.   I miss the team, the PeCo crew and of course Zeth... but it turns out that God knew all along. And you can always call me Zarah.   

Oh, yeah, and I also learned to live like you were dying. 


We may never know what the future holds, but we know who holds the future!


And in case I never sign on to this thing again... It's a trip.  I'll catch you later.
