This post is months and months late but I really wanted to
blog about this just to have the memory on here.Last July, I traveled to Madrid in Spain for 3 days with my
friend Ava (formally known as Julina), this trip was a sweet birthday present
from her.
Ava and I - Madrid, Day 1 |
I am going to keep
this blog post, like the trip, short and sweet. It was a blessing to take time
out and enjoy the company of my friend Ava, I especially enjoyed the hot
weather, our sorbet heat breaks (hehe) and our trip to the National
Archaeological Museum of Spain.

Whenever I travel I always ask the Lord to make the trip
purposeful by teaching me something I wouldn’t have learnt in the UK. Well that lesson came at the airport on our
way home when I lost my older brother’s hat, and before I knew it I almost had the whole of
Madrid airport shut down in order to find this hat!It’s always annoying losing things, but I think the Lord had
to show me how distressed and anxious I get when it comes to losing even the “little
things”. I often fell and act like it’s
the end of the world. I think my brother’s reply to my text message really brought
the lesson home. When I texted him to “bear the sad news”, he replied “Don’t
worry Dais, it’s just a hat”.
All in all the trip was very good, and a blessing from the
Lord. In some ways it has really impacted my life as since then I have been
spending a lot of time evaluating how I deal with stressful situations, money
and “things”, and let’s just say, I’m looking forward to doing my first car
boot sale this summer J

I encourage everyone, where ever you go, ask the Lord to
teach you something that you wouldn’t have learnt had you not gone there.
