This week I leave Kansas City to take on new adventures. Today I said goodbye to my parish as I celebrated my last communion with them. It's been one of the hardest days I've ever had, and I've seen some pretty dark days. This week has been spent in prayer and reflection and thanking God for the wonderful blessings that I do have, and had I not moved to Kansas five years ago I would have never become Orthodox.
As I hugged my godparents, I couldn't be brave anymore. I started to cry and they said, "He loves you more than we do." I think that says it all right there.
"Your scientists were so caught up with the fact that they could that they didn't stop to think whether or not they should." -Dr. Ian Malcolm, Jurassic Park
