Yesterday I hit "submit" on my application for admission to the PhD EdTech program at OSU. It's kind of scary. Rejection is real, and no matter (apparently) how many times I experience it, it still stings, and I find myself hesitant to offer others the opportunity to reject me, if possible! At the same time, my oldest kid is graduating university this spring, venturing out in search of his first "real job"--I can console myself knowing that, at the very least, I am setting an example for courage in the face of possible rejection! I want very much to be on the path God has planned for me--so why "fingers crossed"? Why not "triumphantly stepping into His plan, although uncertain what exactly it is!!!"? I know the latter is true. Hard not to cross my fingers anyway.
