I'm so glad I'm in Oregon. I like it so much here. It's actually really challenging in many ways for me to be here. I'm not sure why I had kind of been avoiding it the last five years...no, wait, I think I do know. It's because my childhood here was kind of boring and I just associated Oregon with that experience. And also, whenever I visited I did enjoy it but I always left quickly. I kind of denied how much I wanted to be here because it made it easier to be away from it.

God told me that it wouldn't be the same as it was when I was here in Oregon before, if I have really changed...and I think He's right.
