July 4th has got to be one of my favorite holidays… a big reason is because I have such good memories of friends and family on this day. This past weekend was spent with a few of my favorite girls at my dads apt in Redondo Beach laying on the sand, walking to small local shops and restaurants, FIREWORKS 
, football, movies, and the Redondo pier night life…
On a different note though, this weekend was a great reminder for me for all the Lord has done in my life in this past year. Its been a hard one, filled with a lot of emotion, choices, disappointment, broken trust…. but looking back there is so many beautiful things that I take from it. The idea of Freedom has never been so clear to me… we are free in Christ, and this has brought such a peace to my life lately. I finally feel like me again, and its been a long time since I have been able to say that. I look forward to pursuing my summer goals (even though summer is flying by), and to participating in my life much more than I have been recently… Its amazing how a difficult situation in life can put you in a box, out of the lime light for awhile and make you fully depend, desire and lean on Christ to learn all you need to learn… Im excited to share that with people, to be able to relate just a little bit more and to be more prepared for the next challenge that is to come.. Freedom is beautiful… I have taken it for granted… many people in this world will never have the option to experience it…. Happy belated 4th
Summer goal list will be posted soon
