The New Journey


During the school year I had this idea that for my graduation gift to myself I would go on another trip to Germany and Switzerland . I did that had a great time met some wonderful people got a chance to travel around EUROPE. I got back and started working full time. To make a long story short I didn't feel that I was making an impact on life. I was working long hours to help a small company make thousands of dollars. No disrespect to the company. I wanted something more meaningful at the end of the day. By doing this I figure I would go somewhere that I have never been before and teach English. This leads me to my next journey South Korea. Once I get my papers straight I will be flying out to teach English for a year. I am going to miss all my friends and family for sure. However it is something that I really want to do and the best time for that is now while I am young. I am going to miss alot of events within a year including an event that is coming soon that I am sadly going to miss my best friend's wedding. This is one of the main reasons I made this blog so that friends and family can keep up with me! Until the next time fam. Signing off yours truly

Life


Life is full of ups and downs. It is something that we all must face it is inevitable part of life. Throughout the years I have been blessed despite my faults, trials, and circumstances. Recently I graduated from EASTERN MENNONITE UNIVERSITY which I am very proud of. Many people like to what I call front like they are not proud of their school. Well I am the type of person I am going to make the best situation wherever I am its just what I do. I plan to carry this attitude into the next stage of my life as well wherever I might be! This is just the introduction to my blog J.Lyons! my words for the day and currently my motto

"Don't get caught up in life. Slow down enjoy it each moment. It only comes once. Try and make a difference in someone Else's life. Take time to ask how someone Else's day went. Call that friend that you haven't spoken to in awhile."
