It's Only Getting Better
A few years ago when I was in college, I had a conversation with my Dad - one of those honest reflective conversations. I was saying how I was so glad to be in college and how well everything was going. I was gaining independence, growing, becoming my own person, loving life. I made a comment that I wondered if something bad would happen because things just seemed to be so good. Listening to my thoughts, my dad agreed that he'd felt the same way but then said, "Kelsey, life gets better and better as you go along." And I'd have to agree. It seems like each new phase of my life is better than the last! I keep growing, streching, learning, experiencing and loving. It's beautiful & wonderful. Even after a hectic day, well, a hectic week, life is sweet. Even dealing with lonliness, singleness, burn out, stress, life is precious. I'm just so excited about what I see God doing, and I'm so excited to be part of God's community.

My parents have expressed the same sentiments to me--their lives are better now than ever (or at least in most respects). This morning one of my friends said she wished she could be 10 again. I replied that I never wished I was 10. She asked me what age I would wish to be and I said, "The age I am now!" I can honestly say that, with perhaps one or two exceptions, every year of my life has been the best one yet.
