Change

For the most part, I like change. I get weirdly excited over stupid little changes like a new lip gloss or new laundry detergent scent. Some mornings I'll take a different route to work just to shake up my routine a bit. I tend to get bored with the same-old, same-old, which explains why I've changed my blog template roughly 436 times since I began blogging.

Lately I've been extra-aware of a sense of boredom regarding my life. Not much has changed over the past year. Same house. Same job. Same church. And I'm feeling restless. I'm craving some change--obviously my hope is for good change. I have several friends who have recently embarked on new adventures--new job, starting school, etc.--and I can't help but feel a wee bit jealous and bored with my own life.

Maybe I need to take up a new hobby. Or perhaps it's time for some bigger changes. I've lived in the same city ever since I graduated college, so maybe it's time to move on. Time will tell. At any rate, I don't think a new laundry detergent is going to be enough.

LOL--thanks, ladies! I get a sense that God's preparing me for some change(s) in the not too distant future...not sure if that involves physical changes (such as moving/new job/new church) or if it's spiritual changes or relational changes or all of the above. I'll keep you posted...
