My Facebook profile
picture is a photograph that was taken over the long weekend we recently had.
On Saturday of the weekend, some friends and I, along with lots of others
involved in the Young Life community, ventured up to Carolina Point. Carolina
Point is a Young Life camp in Brevard, NC, which is in the process of being
built. We traveled to Carolina Point to pray over the different areas of the
camp, as well as the campers and staff that would be there for the first
official session this summer. The location of this photo is significant because
Young Life has recently become a significant part of my life. I am currently
going through a program called Quest through Clemson, which trains students to
become Young Life leaders. The girl in the picture with me is my friend, Mary
Margaret, who is a Wyldlife leader. Mary Margaret and I were friends in high
school, but our friendship was not as strong when she left to begin college at
Clemson last fall. When I came to Clemson this fall, Mary Margaret and I began
to strengthen our friendship become great friends, once again! Because Mary
Margaret is in my profile picture, it shows that she holds a special place in
my life. You can see how these two aspects of my life affect me, simply by the
joy on my face and my body language in the photo. I have a big smile on my face
and am giving Mary Margaret a hug! I think the “message” sent to my friends
through this photo is simply the unexplainable and unceasing joy I constantly
find in my life through relationships, such as my friendship with Mary
Margaret, through things I am involved in, like Young Life, and simply enjoying
my time at Clemson University!
