it was said: Would it be okay to say that you being [there] seems a lot more ‘right’ than you being [here]? That’s just my personal view… when I think of you being back [there], it just seems to fit somehow. Not because of anything you say, although that does confirm it for me.

it was said: It makes me so sad that you have to endure such exhaustion at work everyday. I wish that wasn’t the case. Living and working when you’re not content is not how your life should be. I understand the exhaustion part but [my work] still brings me joy and is rewarding. I know that God will make it clear.

it was said: I was on campus today and it felt so right. I never even [attended there as a student] but seeing all these students socializing and being passionate about their studies… wow. I just felt today that, if I could, I would be a lifelong student. I just love the atmosphere and the feeling of community… like everyone has something in common. [Here] is so different.

it was said: Nice to hear about your experience. Try not to forget about that. I think it’s important to remember those places or moments when all things seemed to align. Maybe it’s that something in them resonates with God’s calling for our lives.

Work it not, primarily, a thing one does to live, but the thing one lives to do. It is, or it should be, the full expression of the worker’s faculties, the thing in which he finds spiritual, mental, and bodily satisfaction, and the medium in which he offers himself to God.
Creed or Chaos; Dorothy Sayers

Hear me asking where do I belong?
Is there a vision that I can call my own?
I’m looking for a reason …
I need your light to help me find
My place in this world
