For he will be like a tree planted by the water, That extends its roots by a stream.. and will not fear when the heat comes; but its leaves will be green, and it will not be anxious in a year of drought nor cease to yield fruit.
-Jeremiah 17:8

I’m currently in my internship, in my third week nevertheless, and I had a client come in for a 80 minute massage, only to come out booking for two hour massage for the next two weeks. I’ve never felt so comfortable with a client so far in my experience and I have to write this reflective paper and you bet your butts this client will be worthy of a page. I could not do it without the support of my fellow Carrington peers, my instructors, my best friend, my parents, and my family/family friends that have watched me unfold into the practitioner to be I’m am turning out to be.Also to mention that this client also mentioned that he always gets better massages here than any other school in the area. And a client last night who was a Carrington College Alumni said the same thing. It’s just so rewarding to see this change in my life unfold into new possibilities.

I closed my eyes,
Shut the blinds.
Locked this heart,
For a while.

Played my life,
On rewind,
Frozen in time,

Memory faded

Can’t change it now,

The key’s been thrown,

It’s gone,

Disappeared in thin air.

I get lost,
In the past,
Searching for answers,

I can’t seem to find.

I’ll stay away,
And hope and pray,
That this problem will resolve itself,

On its own.

But you and I,
Yes we know,
That the past is there to haunt,

To taunt our souls

It’s also there to learn,

To understand,

How human nature,

Can be so cruel

I have manifested Your name to the men whom You gave Me out of the world; they were Yours and You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.

-John 17:6

His divine power has given us everything required for life and godliness through the knowledge of Him Who called us by His own glory and goodness.
-2 Peter 1:3
