This summer I have fallen in love with sunsets! I have seen the sun set over Jerusalem, over the Great Pyramid's in Egypt, over the Sea of Galilee, and over the Mediterranean Sea. I have started to realize that this life is full of sunsets. I remember sitting in the locker room my senior year and my volleyball coach telling us that this was only the beginning to "last times." Time passes and eventually everything comes to an end whether it is a high school volleyball career, a year of college, or an amazing study abroad in the Holy Land.My summer is now coming to a close and I will be returning to the states on Friday. The sun is setting on this portion of my life and as my friend Monica said, "I am ready for this phase to be over and for a new one to start." It has been a wonderful experience. I will always remember the time that I have had here but I am looking forward to what lies ahead. There are many more sunrises ahead that will bring many more beautiful sunsets.
I can't wait to see everyone soon!
