This past weekend I went to the beach with some students and with a friend of mine. We had a really good time. We ate a really good lunch, walked around, sat on the beach (with our hoods on and towels over our face because it was super windy and the sand was blowing at us like crazy!) and we walked in the water while attempting to play frisbee. Frisbee didn't work so well with the wind factor--it was more us just running around chasing it. Still fun. Towards the end of the afternoon I was getting a little tired and felt kind of dirty with sand all over me and my hair completely wind blown. And I was cold. Combine those three things together, and I can get a little "girl like". Tired + Dirty + Cold = unhappy camper. I just wanted to whine. I got a little moody and couldn't explain my mood, but as J.Lo and I like to say I was "being a girl". It was just one of those moods and times that I couldn't explain, but I had to just let pass. I was told that mood wasn't the most attractive side of me, but I can't deny that it is a part of me. The bad comes with the good I guess. Good thing I have a whole lot of good in me to balance out the little bit of bad :) Don't get me wrong--I think being a girl is a wonderful and beautiful thing. God created us in a very unique way and thought some times we may not be easy to understand or figure out, but that's the beauty of God's creation, we're not suppose to figure everything out. There can be beauty in not always knowing.
All in all it was a great day. Good conversation, some good food, and it was refreshing to see the ocean and to be reminded of how big our God is.
