an ode to the end and a cheer to the beginning

Welcome week for our freshmen is almost over...I have met so many new and old students. The experience of being a TT leader is one that I will never forget nor that i regret. I am incredibly excited to begin my sophomore year at a such an amazing school. I've found through this week that God has placed me exactly where I want to be and need to be. Belmont would NOT have been my answer if you asked me three years ago where I was going to end up for college. It is so cool to see how God has shaped my life. Last year when I was going through orientation before school, i was so lost and scared. I would never have thought that I would be a Towering Traditions leader, or an SLA. I didnt think that I had it in me to lead but I found out by being at Belmont that a leader doesnt have to be a perfect person or an outgoing person. A leader is a servant. We are serving the people that are following us. We have to lead by example. I cannot wait to see what's going to happen this year. This first week and a half have been amazing so I dont know how you can top that! :) Classes start tomorrow! I'm so excited to have some classes with old friends and to meet many more.

God, Thank you so much for showing me my place. Please continue to show me where I am supposed to go to follow You.
