iii. New title. New goals.


After 선영's wedding~

1] This past weekend was my first experience singing at a wedding and this will sound weird to people not in Korea, but for my second Korean wedding, it was surprisingly lovely. Being a typical Korean wedding, some of the unfortunate expectations were fulfilled, but it was... I don't know how to explain it in a blog.. just really good. Skype or call to know more :) I'm very thankful to 선영 for asking me to sing and totally in debt to Brett Chesney for playing piano so beautifully (and so last minute!).

2] Before recently, I was really preoccupied with thoughts of being unfulfilled. I had the opportunities to do such great things when I first got to Korea that I got greedy and wanted more. I had all these grand accomplishments in mind but for the wrong reasons. And I didn't even realize the mindset that I was developing. And even worse, I had let people affect my ambitions and allowed my joy to be robbed. But, I'm so so so thankful for grace and love that is always so present and evident in my life. I thank God that anything, absolutely EVERYTHING is redeemable. And that life is beautiful.

3] I changed the title of my blog because of some important realizations that I made. I will always invite people into my life, but I've come to believe that my friends' involvement with me in Korea is not about something to be invited to. Korea is no longer an event that has happened and will finish. It is part of my road less travelled that is never ending and always changing. And blah blah blah I guess you'll have to keep reading to find out what happensss

Ok! Enough for now. Bye, and happy Movember!
