Life Decisions
I have less than two weeks left here in Ghana and I am not ready to go home. I'm going to miss my friends here way too much. They are so good to me and I feel like they bring out the best parts of me. I am excited to see my family and friends and enjoy the conveniences of the United States but there is so much uncertainty at home. I am graduating from college but what am I going to do with my life now? I've always known that getting education is important. At first I didn't really want it but now I do and I am so grateful for all I have learned. I am also grateful for all of the opportunities and adventures that attending college has had to offer me. That being said, I've never really wanted a career. My whole life I've simply wanted to be the world's most amazing mom. I know that all of the experiences I've had, especially this one in Ghana, will help me on this quest. Unfortunately there are no prospects for meeting this goal at the present time. And now I am left to decide what my next adventure will be. Making this decision is one of the hardest things I have ever done. I don't even know where to start. I am filled with hope for the future but I have no idea where it will lead me. Any ideas or suggestions are encouraged.

My suggestion: if you are going to go to grad school or even thinking about it take the GRE before August. It'll be good for five years that way...and the new version will be fill-in-the-blank...eek.
That will take some stress off of you whether you decide that is what you want or not :)
Lizzy,
Your life is amazing:)Sometimes what we want, sadly is not always what God has in mind. Just continue to trust in Him as I have watched you do with your life for so long now. I admire all the service you give to so many people and their lives are forever changed because of knowing you. Your future will be exactly the way it is supposed to be because of all the right decisions you have already made in your life. I have no doubt that the Lord knows what you need and when you need it. Sometimes it feels as though we don't know what to do, and that might be your answer...Be patient it will all work out, I promise:)
Love, your cousin April
