halfway point.

so the halfway point is quickly approaching and i know that i haven't updated this in a while and as per usual, i have my reasons. writing a blog, as i have discovered is like a vicious circle. i am busy/tired so i forget to update it, then i do more things so i feel like i would have much more to write in an update, making it much more work to actually write aforementioned update, then I talk myself out of writing it because I don’t have the time or I just don’t feel like sitting down and writing down all of the things that are going on here.
I wish that wasn’t the case, because there is a part of me that knows that when time goes by and I want to look back on this experience and remember every thing I thought and when I also know it is a great way of keeping the people I love informed on what is going on in my life, however, I wish I was not a procrastinator. This mentality of “I’ll do it later/tomorrow/when I feel like it” is one that I know I need to overcome..
So here is (as brief an update I can muster) of the past few weeks here in Ukraine

And many more things, and hopefully at some point I can explain some of these things in the fullness they deserve, but for now. This must do. One thing I can say is that whilst Ukraine is very, very different from life in North America, I could not be more excited to be exactly where God wants me to be.
