Even When

My mind was made up, God showed me a whole different plan.
Funny how He does that, huh?

I think I've figured out what it is that I am supposed to do with my life.
Although I am naturally a bit scared, I am also overly excited for it.
The few people I have told have surprised me in their reactions.
I thought my dad and Gen would both do whatever they could to change my mind, but they were the most supportive.
That makes me happy.

So, now to tell you what I have decided on...
& I'm not exactly sure what to call it, so I came up with a name:

Missionary photographer.

I want to travel.
I want to help.
I want to capture the beauty of the people all over the world.
I want to be a part of God's people.
I want, I want, I want...

Truth is I want to do what God wants.
Whatever glorifies Him, that's it.

Obviously to get to where I need to be I still need more schooling.
Major in photography, minor in something like anthropology... not too sure though.
Then, in order to gain experience and confidence in traveling, join the peace corps.

There are still a lot of things to work out and research on.
Nothing is set in stone yet...
But I love the direction it's headed in.
