I'm sitting here in my room... it's so weird. I've been packing it up all day. I needed to take a breather.
Last night was fun. It was a nice conclusion to the year. Ice cream was fun, and hanging out in my room afterwards... and then Ihop. That was... interesting at 2 in the morning, but fun nonetheless. It was a good time of forgetting about everything, and just fooling around, and enjoying each other's company. I love times like that.
Now, everyone's pretty much gone. It's pouring rain outside, my car is at beaners and I need to go get it soon so I can pack it up and then drive home. I'm here packing, and it's not going so well. I hate doing this. I hate having to move everything. I just want to stay, and be content, like I've been all year. I don't want to go home. And I didn't want to say goodbye to people and I don't want to leave here for the summer. I don't see what this summer has in store. I don't see it at all. I hope I don't end up doing what I know I'm capabale of doing... by sitting and not growing. By being content with not growing at home, like I've done my entire life. I'm afraid. I don't want to do it. I don't want to be faced with the challenge that I know I'm going to be faced with, starting tonight when I roll into Farmington Hills. This is the first time I'll be at home, where I've been walking with the Lord. And now, it'll be a challenge to actually continue walking with him - it'll be hard to not get into the old habits. I don't want to face this challenge.
Lord, I feel really helpless right now. I don't want to do this. Help me to know that you're here with me right now, because I feel really, really alone.

Yesterday was fun. :-)
While at home, try to make a plan (something reasonable) for how to be sure you're growing and not becoming content with stagnancy. My first goal one summer was to simply read something (even one verse!) from the Bible every day. That was a challenge! It still is, sometimes.
But give yourself a plan. Schedule the time.
No guilt for not sticking to it.
