How about a little Mindful Monday action, y'all??
I've mentioned before that this Eurotrip has been rather humbling at times. Being away from close friends and my native language has been somewhat difficult, but the breathtaking landscapes, the beautifully historic buildings, and of course my loving [Italian] family are regular reminders of God's grace and glory. This month abroad has gone by so quickly, but–short though it was–I think it has served an important role in my transition from college to my next stage of life.
Sometimes it's easy to look at a building that has
remained standing for over 400 years and be impressed by Man. In a place
like Tuscany, however, with a 360˚ panorama of nature available at all
times, it's hard not to be impressed by God (or whichever higher power you might subscribe to).
The scenes that surrounded me this week have been astounding...
relaxing...
...and reassuring.
I know that my stresses, fears, and insecurities are nothing in the grand scheme of things.
And that's a good thing.
Just one Monday from now I'll be boarding a plane for Florida. Can't believe it.
