Day Two: Excerpt [Journal 1, Page 1]

I’d wanted to start a fresh journal for vacation, and then a friend brought me this one on the day I was packing. It’s ornate and has an elephant on the cover – nothing I’d pick for myself. But the reason she gave it to me was less about the elephant and more about the title – “Remember the Journey.”

I’m too destination oriented. She knows this. I know
this. I hope God changes this – I’d much rather live in the journey – that
not-quite-yet.
