November was an anxious month for me as I decided to stay in China or move back to the States. Staying is easier - everything is set up and known. Going back is harder - no job, insurance, car, etc. Yet I am going back. Anxiety was given over to peace - peace that can only come from above because no matter how often I think about moving home, I am not anxious. I am peaceful about it. Even more shocking when I remind myself that my goal is to live and teach in Detroit. Seriously - it's probably crazier to move to Detroit than China. Two places I never thought I would be.

Grief is beginning to settle into January. Grief because of death, because of the thought of ending my time in China. I found out my grandma died last week. That was rough - for all involved. But grieving is a process and I have amazing friends in China who are supporting me in incredible ways. I am blessed for the love they have. I wonder what my grief will turn into...
Grandma at my college graduation.
Much love to you all.
