Feeling grateful

As time continues to hurtle past me I realize only now how little time I have left! So it seems strange to me that I keep thinking silly things like…I haven’t had a chance to perfect homemade tortillas yet, and man, I still really want to make it to a few more shows in Austin!
Thank goodness I have fantastic, loving friends and family who keep me grounded. I might just float away into a mental abyss of random tidbits and end pieces without my friends to remind me what really matters! Tonight my longtime friend, Amber, took the reins and made my travel plans from Pennsylvania to New Jersey to New York. I had been dreading trying to figure out that mess! Not only did she save me that mess, she then “forced” me to go to a girly movie in which we giggled and joked through. It is these moments that I will wrap around me when I am feeling lonely or homesick in Israel.
I have so many kindred spirits in Austin. I am glad to know that no matter what part of the world I am in there are people I love and who love me no matter what! I could write volumes of the love and growth that I share with my friends and I will miss all of them deeply! I cherish every moment I have with them.

What I am really trying to say is:
THANK YOU! Thank you everyone for the continued love, support, joy, growth, warmth and wild abandon you have allowed me to share in with you. It has been so beautiful.
With all the love I have,
Jesyca
