Restless.

Today, while I was working and running things from place to place, I was walking back to the EAC. It had just rained and was quite humid. I got to the top of the stairs outside of the building and a gust of wind hit me. For a moment, just a small, tiny second in my day, I was transported thousands of miles away to a land that I love oh, so much. My heart and mind launched out of me and I stood there motionless remembering. I have no idea where that smell came from-the distinct smell of fish paste. But it was there. It was hot out today, too. So it even felt like Cambodia. For just a second, I was reminded what it will feel like next semester when I'm there.
I feel so restless. I want to be there, but I know I need to be here right now. I was told once that I God had anointed me for this- for this mission, for this calling. I half laughed it off half peed my pants. But I know it's true.
Today? Today I longed for the smell of fish, the feeling of heat coming through my shoes, the sound of laughing little girls, and the land of Cambodia.
