Sorting and packing and Romans papers

And so it comes to a swift close, this college life of mine. Last night I wrote papers for a few hours, then went back to my room and packed for a couple of hours. It is funny to go through all of my stuff and find such random things....seashells from vacations past, bracelets some little girls made for me, old rocks from the river I swam in for 5 years in Flexal, and so much more. Letting go of some of these things has been good for me, because in the end, what will they matter? Not much.... :) The people I experienced these memories with are so incredibly special and I don't need rocks to remember it.

So, I will probably not miss the long hours of research and writing in the library, but I have certainly learned a lot through all of my different papers. Looking back, I have written about so many different topics, including post partum depression, abortion, existentialism, Eastern mysticism, repentance, and the effects of divorce on children. I do not regret a single topic I chose.

Praise God for running! I'm off to do that since I just finished one of my papers. My thoughts are so scatterbrained right now and I'm ready for a break!
