took a vacation from myself.

So...
I've never been a big fan of cities.
When my friends would go on and on and on about LA and living in Hollywood, in all honesty, I would say, "No thank you, not for me. Too crowded and the only thing I like is the theater."
But San Diego...?
Well, I just might make an exception.

Just came back from a very relaxing vacation with the family.

Last year, the sibs and I did not have the same spring break, so our family was forced to surrender our family time to a later date since we could not all be together.

But this year all returned to normal and after months of having to simply pass each other by in the hallways of our Upland home we got the chance to venture out as ONE unit into the well-loved Gaslamp district of Downtown SD.

It has always been one of my favorite places, and the last time I went...I think I was a senior and was seriously considering going to UCSD because of it.

Obviously God had other plans for me, which I don't resent in anyway.

But going back reminded me of all I loved about San Diego and how I truly believe that one day...I will go back on a more "long-term" visit.

Somehow, I can't imagine it not being an important site of my life. It's just a vibe I get, but for now, I can wait.

For now, I know that my place is here. Where I am, with the people I love,
And the work that I know has to be done.

So until then, I can wait. But SD, I'm coming for you baby!

"Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD."
Psalm 27:14
