<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">i caved and went to the ER after work today.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">i'm still experiencing ongoing discomfort and pain so i wanted to get things straightened out.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">doc says it looks like a "<i>subluxed rib at the sternal junction</i>". (uh, okay...)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">possibilities of a fracture as well but she couldn't confirm from the x-ray.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">either way treatment is pretty much what i've already been doing.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">ibuprofen and<b> more rest</b>.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">sort of a neat story though-</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">i told the doctor that the injury was likely from rolling in jiu jitsu; which lead to her asking where i trained.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">i told her DCS and then she gently bragged that she also takes jiu jitsu but at Gracie Barra.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">hah! so rad.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">we discussed how we're both fairly new to the sport and how injuries are a lot more common when not really knowing what one is doing; which is certainly true... but that we love jits nonetheless.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">as i said thank you and good bye, she replied with "see you in the future... hopefully in a tournament".</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">i turned, chuckled and sort of said under my breath, "haha, eeeyeahh", and walked off.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b>all in all</b>, i'm thankful that there's nothing too serious going on.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">i'm also trying to seek a more positive outlook on the whole 'resting' rule.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">i have a ton more time on my hands to do things that i was neglecting while on my training rampage.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;">like getting my laundry done at a decent hour, cooking/baking, going for walks, rekindling my creative side, meeting up with friends, getting a little shopping in (oopsie)... and so on.</span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">mannnn, sometimes i'm just way too quick to whine and complain about situations before trying to seek out the blessings. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">i've been taking some time off from training due to a bruised rib.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">apparently this type of injury can take a month - possibly longer - to fully heal.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">generally, i'm not one to step away when injured - i'd rather push through it at a steady pace.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">but this time i strongly sensed that my body would not heal unless i gave it the proper treatment.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">which meant: <b>rest</b>.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">kickboxing, and recently having started up jiu jitsu, has been my everyday afterwork routine for the last 6 months. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">i was going 5-6 days a week.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">since the injury i have not been to the gym to train in nearly 2 weeks; </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">which is the longest amount i've spent away from the gym since joining.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">it's been tough and challenging and there are certain moments where i feel like i'm going to crack and utterly lose it. especially the days that i feel like the pain is easing and i'm making progress, to wake up to another day feeling like i'm back to square one. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">and sure, it may come off a tad dramatic. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">but understand, this has essentially been my life the past few months. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">however, in all this, The Lord has been teaching me self-control, patience, humility...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">even revealing various idols in my life. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">for instance, the thought of gaining weight has certainly entered my mind.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">as well, i am a gal who loves to eat. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">and we all know how to equate food + no exercise...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">this is where humility comes in.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">a staff member at Westside referred<b> 1 Timothy 4:8</b> to me, </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">"<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come." </i></span></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">which then lead to experiencing a burning desire to spend more time with Jesus; in the Word, prayer, through artistic forms of worship in writing and singing... even blogging again.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>thank you, Lord</i>.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">i'd been praying for more time with God and to experience more of Him in my life after feeling like i was going through a dry spell for some time.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">and so this was a huge answer to prayer - in a seemingly unexpected way.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">i freakin' love it when God works blessings into trials.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">and while the Lord is gradually revealing areas in my life that need attention i am still finding myself pushing against the emotional struggles that have been tugging at my heart. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">truthfully, i have a 'natural' ability to hold my composure around others when hurting.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">but there is a lot that goes on behind closed doors - for many of us.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">i have been fighting my own battles the last little while.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">however, i am constantly being reminded that i am not alone in my afflictions...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: #fdfeff; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged." (</i></span></span><span style="background-color: #fdfeff; line-height: 20px;">Deuteronomy 31:8)</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">when one thing goes wrong, and after some degree of my practicing of patience, He reveals something even more grand than i could ever have imagined.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">like, it's super ridiculous but in the most remarkable way. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">so currently this is where i'm at...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">learning lots. still struggling, but trusting in the Lord. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">it's good stuff.</span></div>

<i><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">The key to protecting your heart is not allowing it to be anywhere that Christ is not. What I mean is that sometimes we don’t allow Christ to have full access of our lives, we sing our songs and raise our hands, we read our Bibles and pray our prayers. Yet, we don’t long for God the same way we long for others. That is why we fall into bad situations, we end up repeating addictions or bad habits. We end up in the wrong relationships, and damage them in the process.</span></i><br />

<div style="color: #050101; font-size: 16px; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>Jesus is the most important thing in all of creation, it would be wise to build your life around what He wants, and what He would do. By surrendering your heart to Him, you end up guarding it so well that you will only desire those holy things that God desires. A good marriage, helping those who need help, loving the unlovable, seeking justice, bringing about Christ’s kingdom to fruition, honoring the meek in spirit, and so on.</i></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>It is not enough that we get comfortable in our routines with God, because God is not wanting a robot, He wants a child that He can show the world to. He wants to take you places that you will have to trust Him completely, and He wants to make you a pro in the field of loving others truly.</i></span><br />

central park basically <b>exceeded my expectations</b>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i managed to get there on my second to last day because, frankly, i really didn't know what i was in for.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i pictured central park as a cliche, new york go-to-must - but... i get it now.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the changing of leaves, the crisp air, people blowing giant bubbles, coffee-in-hand, curious squirrels... even the tourists (plus much, <b>much</b> more) - all made it quite magical.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and then to find out that our hour and a half walk only took us about a quarter ways of the whole park...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i was completely dumbfounded.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i mean, everyone talked about how <i>big</i> it was and all, but i think what they meant is that it's <b>MASSIVE</b>.</div>

<i>i couldn't think of a clever ice-breaker, so this'll have to do.</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
instead of giving you a lengthy, boring run-down of my life the past few months,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
allow me to give you the more "<i>significant</i>" details... <b>and then we'll call it a day.</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
let's take this point-form style.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- i no longer work at <b>wings + horns</b> (though i do miss it there, and the people)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- i work at Westside Church (also the church that i've been attending for 7 years) as the</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>front desk administrator</b>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- i booked a flight to <b>new york </b>(!!!) for the end of october. i'll be there for<span style="font-size: large;"> 11 days</span>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it's been a long time coming for that trip. i am very very <span style="font-size: large;"><b>very</b></span> excited.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- i have gone back to my roots of being active and healthy. i train twice a week with my</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
good friend and trainer, ann, and hit up the gym on my own 3 or 4 other days of the week.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
fitness has done a 180 for my body in the way i feel and function.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i>physically, i feel so alive and strong</i>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>that's all</b>. i promised to keep it short.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
going to try to get back into the swing of blogging.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>forgive me</b> for the lengthy absence and thanks for your patience.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i>more to come...</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

People who blithely go through life too busy or indifferent to ask the hard questions about why they believe as they do will find themselves defenseless against either the experience of tragedy or the probing questions of a smart skeptic. A person's faith can collapse almost overnight if she failed over the years to listen patiently to her own doubts, which should only be discarded after long reflection.” </i></span></span></div>

i figured i'd wear it here and there- mainly in the spring and perhaps in the fall.<br />
<i>sure. </i><br />
but i've been wearing this coat nearly every day, since.<br />
not to mention that it's beige and goes with practically my whole wardrobe,<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">one</span>, big <b>muchas gracias </b>to all those who took the time to wish me a happy birthday today.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">especially all you individuals who i rarely talk to/haven't talked to in ages.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">in all honesty i'd been <b>dreading </b><span style="font-size: large;">23</span> for what seems like <b>a whole year</b>... <i>ever since i turned 22.</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">i just didn't want the day to come. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>period.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">and then to <span style="font-size: large;">add the icing on the cake</span>, i recently came across an article on,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">*<i>rolls eyes</i>*, <b>facebook</b>, that shed light as to why 23 is the worst year of your life.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">oh ya? <i>oh sick</i>. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>awesome.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">but what <b>TRULY</b> is so gut-wrenchingly terrible about 23, you might ask?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">well... <b>nothing</b>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">to put it simply:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">it's all what you make of it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">i'd originally assumed it to be some <b>big identity crisis</b>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">and, to be fair, i have re-evaluated career paths and goals,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">but rather than being fearful and negative about it, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">i'm trying to use it as an opportunity to <b>learn more about who am i.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>what are my strengths/weaknesses?</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>what am i truly passionate about?</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>do i belong in another city... country?</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">and so on.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">while in <b>palm springs</b> for the next 8 days, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">i figured this would be a good opportunity to spend time <b>reflecting</b>, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">and <b>talking with God</b> about all these things hammering away in my head.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">and at the end of the day,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>no matter where i am or what i am doing</i>,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>i am blessed </b>(to death).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">"And see if there be any grievous way in me,</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">and lead me in the way everlasting!"</span></i></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">had</span> a real nice wrap to my week with a <b>solid sunday</b>.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Mr. Red Cafe</b> was calling my name so i caved & went back again with <b>della and rob</b>.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">we ate till we couldn't move which then forced us to just sit </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">and take in each other's company.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">the subject of "<b>trust</b>" and "<b>hope</b>" have been resonating a lot with me the past few weeks.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>reminding myself to surrender everything i have to the Lord</i> as i have a tendency</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">to try and take over my own plans for the future.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">but also feeling super <b>encouraged </b>by friends and family- <i>even through moments of doubt.</i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">and moments of "<i>where are you God?</i>"</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
