The Calm Before the Storm

The school year is about to start--and, with it, the official beginning of my career as a seminarian.  I'm diving into the reading next week and will be journaling about what I'm reading.  Then, week after next is orientation in Chicago.  Then, the following week I will begin my community studies field placement at Club Nova, and will start my online Hebrew Scriptures class, along with the readings for my January intensive classes, including the somewhat daunting Liberal Theology course.

For now, I'm trying to remember simply to breathe.
