Here to blog, again

By Savannah O’Donohue

 

Here I am again, here to tell you how I feel. For a long time now I haven’t been telling people how I feel. I’ve been keeping to myself and keeping things to myself. This blogging thing helps with this problem I have. When something big happened in my life, I wouldn’t share it with the world. Well, this is my third year at creation, as I said before, and this is my most amazing year so far. I’ve decided I’m letting it all go. I’m giving my life to God. I’m letting go of my past. I’m not hiding my beliefs anymore.

 

This year at Creation, everyone’s let go. They’ve let there guards down. I’ve seen some of these people let their pain go and some of them break down. I’ve seen the strong and stubborn become the weak and easy. But I don’t mean that in a bad way. I mean that as, they’ve finally let there feelings out. From my experience, letting your feelings out, becoming weak, becoming easy; makes you stronger. Don’t stay weak and easy. Just let it out. Just for the moment.

 

There is no other place I’ve been to in this entire world that has more love than Creation. Everyone here I can call my family. Everyone here I can talk to. Everyone here loves me for ME. They are my family. Every year we come “home” and update our PA friends with what has happened in the past year. We re-group and get ready to love. Love the Lord, love our family, and especially love ourselves. We’re here to praise the Heavenly Father and to be with one another. We do the crazy things like; dye your hair, get gross and nasty (not really by choice), wear awesome hats, and sweet bandanas. Things we don’t do when we’re home. We miss our family, but we don’t want to leave. I can’t stand the nasty, hot, dirty, gross, camping part. But I adore the  case of L-O-V-E that we all have. I absolutely love the closeness I have with the people here.  The people I only get to see  for five days a week. I love the kids here, the music I hear 24/7, the God I feel pulsing through my veins. Every time I life my arms to the heavens, I can feel God come from the tips of my fingers to the bottoms of my feet. It makes me smile with every fiber of my being. CREATION makes me smile with every fiber of my being. Everyone should join. It’s great fun, obviously.
