I think we can all agree that most of us have hit the point in the semester where we simply have stopped caring, even though now is one of the most vital times TO care. I can personally say that I have slim to no motivation to do anything except lay in bed and watch Grey's for the third time. There comes a time where we are even unmotivated to go out and do fun things, and I am at that point.
It is important to know that taking a break and going HOME is okay to do. Yet, the meaning of home can differ from person to person. Sometimes, and currently for me, home is completely literal and I am at the house where I grew up with the people who raised me, my parents. But other times, home can be the place where you feel as though the people surrounding you are the most prominent and comforting people in your life at that time. Home can mean you are sitting in somewhere away from civilization by yourself, taking in the wonders of the world. Home is not defined by the location you have always known, but rather the place you are at peace.
Don't worry, we have almost made it past the stress and heartache of the semester. Finish strong and know that in those times of heightened anxiety, the place where your heart and spirit lies with Him will provide you with peace.
"Jesus replied, "Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our HOME with them.""
-John 14:23
"I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples."
