Today, I embark on an incredible journey. Beijing has only been a thought in my mind, but today dreams become reality. It is crazy to think that I am about to board a plane to Detroit, and then at 1:15 I board the plane in Detroit and begin the 17 hour and 30 minute flight (not excited). I am nervous but excited about this trip because this is the first time I have been across the world. I will literally be in a different time zone. Beijing is 12 hours ahead, so I am traveling into the future. With everything that has been going on in my life, it will be nice getting away for a month. Life has been tough to comprehend lately with losing two people in my life (RIP Hubert and Ricky Romo) within less than a month of each other. It will put a damper on things, but you just have to keep pushing. I have been trying to tell myself that each and everyday, but I have a hard time letting things go. It is tough to try and deal with these types of things on my own, but it is how I have always done it. I just did not understand why these things had to happen to these people. I felt as though they had a lot left to accomplish in their lives, but I guess they had made their mark on the world. All I can keep doing is praying and trying to keep my head up. Things will only get better from here. I feel as though I was at one of my lowest points, but I believe this trip will put me back in the right direction. I would greatly appreciate prayers for my trip to Beijing cause I am completely immersing myself into something that I have never done before.
