Change in Plans

Alright, so I know that I have put this in my status over the past week, but I thought I should make something of an "official" announcement regarding this matter.
As some of you may know, I was thinking about joining the military. Well, I've given it a lot of thought and prayer, and talked to those who offered helpful advice and information, and I have decided that this is the next step that I need to take in my life.
I'll admit, this did come on rather quickly, as two weeks ago, if I was asked to join the military, I would have said no. But last week, I found myself talking to the recruiter for the Air National Guard, and there were so, so many things that felt right about it. And after walking away from that conversation, there really was no doubt in my mind that this was something that I needed to do.
I did hold off until this morning to call the recruiter again and tell him my decision, as I needed to think it over thoroughly before I committed.
I don't know how everything is going to all work out, with my writing, or my career plans, but all I know for sure is that this is something that I need to do.
Absolutely, this is something that I wasn't expecting to have to deal with at this point in my life, but I am confident in saying that I am 100 percent certain that this is where I need to be.
Yes, this does scare me a little bit, but I trust that God has opened this door for a reason, and I will walk through it towards whatever path He has given me.
