I have knots in the pit of my stomach.

But today and tomorrow are going to RAWWK (to borrow the expression Christina Grimmie uses ... she should trademark it XD )

Finally getting my new car registered and going out on a limb.
This whole year so far has been an adventure, and it's only going to get better. I believe it.
No matter the highs
Such as God lifting me out of my rather severe depression (shall I also call it lethargism and zombie-ism and I'm-a-blank-slate-to-be-wiped-off-the-earth-there-is-no-damn-point-ism) and telling me He'll fill every place in my soul and my life I empty/let go of, and He wants to go on an adventure with me.

and lows (adventures aren't all fun and let's-do-this)
Such as my grandmother passing away. But I'm glad she doesn't have to suffer any more, and she's having a heck of a time up in Heaven. And it was really, really awesome to be at calling hours and see how many people she influenced--the line of people never seemed to end; there were even people who hadn't seen Papa in 20 years. But they came there, because of who Grammie was, how she influenced them and their lives and made a difference. I want to be like that.


Anyway.
I am expecting growth in my relationship with God, my confidence, my artwork, my writing ... everything. I'm putting it out there to make it official. And to remind myself, wherever I happen to be.
I took a step out when God told me He wanted to go on adventure, and I cut some things out of my life. Like gaming, and chatting with my gaming friends. I miss gaming. But it's for the best. I took a step, and I told Him, go ahead and take a mile. Like, do what He wants. It's scary.

But this Sunday He told me not to worry, He'll take care of me. He's here, He's not leaving, He knows how much I fret over everything-a freaking LOT, like all the time :p-and it's all going to be all right. Like,
"Hey, Laya. I get you. Remember that, okay? I get you, and I've got you."

Awesome words, don't you think?

Well, it's awesome. :)
And I love writing (and have several ideas I won't ever be able to write but seeing them turned into a movie would be awesome). An, I'm participating in NaNoWriMo this year, so writingness has me quite excited. And stuff.

What makes you think you can't write those ideas? Just jot them down and start to build!
