There once was a worm
This worm had dreams of the sky
The sky would rush down and embrace it tightly
So great was the sky that when the worm felt that embrace it felt no fear
But as sure as the dream, would come the waking
And the worm would feel the earth again; surrounding, gripping, trapping
The worm would fear.
The worm would seek frantically, always looking for the sky
But the worm did not know what the sky looked like when it was awake
Only when sleep came, and the dreams returned could the worm know the sky
The sky that embraced the worm so tightly yet allowed the worm to feel so free
And so far from the darkness of the earth
Far from the fear.
The worm sought the sky all the days of its life never being sure it was ever really there
The worm died never seeing the sky
But the sky is still there
The sky never leaves
But awaits those who in dreams wish for freedom, so that it might embrace them again.

I haven't died...
... I've just not had time/imagination/free-thought-processes to be doing my blog any justice recently. Once things are out of the way deadline-wise I'll be back on here, as it is now I'm taking a hiatus.
God bless.
God bless.

Time to find where I am.
Right here would be the quickest answer.
The answer I will give in full, however, is as follows;
Following the minor break last Monday over workloads, I have spent the last few days working through these issues with my line manager, my fieldwork tutor, and my year tutor, all of whom have been so helpful. It's amazing how often people get themselves into the same state I was in by thinking, I'm the only one, whereas if they only opened up about their struggles they would find they aren't alone in this. I definitely learned a lot from this. The workload is still at the same level, but I've been given methods of managing it much better. Hallelujah!
Secondly, on the money side of life, I've finally been given my student loan! For the first time in 3 years I'm out of my overdraft with Barclays! Let's hope and pray that I don't mess this up again. Budget time.
Lastly, I've been mulling over Psalm 34. It is as great an example as I can think of of how the bible is relevant through message today as it ever was. I'll probably look into it further in a later post, but for now I'll leave it with you to check out for yourself.
God bless.
