hawaii | one month down


And many more to come.  I've been here a month and it's been a challenge, but a good one.  It has also been a fun adventure of hiking, swimming and exploring.  I've met cool new people, but I miss the old and constant.  I have explored remarkable mountains, but crave the hills of home.  

But remembering, thanks to a lovely note from Jen friend:
"The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot.  The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.  I bless the Lord who gives me counsel; in the night also my heart instructs me.  I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.  Therefore, my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices; my flesh also dwells secure."  Psalm 16: 5-9
