G’day!
G’day, g’day, g’day.
I haven’t said that enough recently –
but today, I want to greet you
personally. So hi! You look great! And I really appreciate you being here.
After posting this last week I
realised a couple of things. This post got something like 600 views, which is
crazy – from all around the world. The majority came from America (which is
highly embarrassing as most the words I used are uniquely American, which
Americans may not get, and hence; I’m just left looking a little crazy), but
other views came from all around the world – Thailand, Taiwan, Uzbekistan,
Russia, Singapore, Costa Rica, Canada.
I don’t know people in half those
places! So I wanted to take the time to stop and say hi! I appreciate you reading
my little ramblings. I so appreciate it, I can’t even say.
You know all about me. You know my
heart and purpose. You know my story. I’m in the US, I’m going to Africa. But,
I don’t know you.
Which is terrible because I want to.
I think you’re important, a masterpiece, beloved.
So here’s my little experiment. If
you’re reading this please post a comment. Your name, a country, and a little
detail of who you are. Make it up, keep it real – but meet me here. I would
love to know your dogs name, your favourite brand of socks. Something that
inspires you, a dream, a talent, a vent. I
want to meet you. You.
Go on, be the first. Even if I do know you, say hi! Don't leave me hanging on this one.

I’m glad to have you here! Have the
most amazing day!
Love & blessings,
Bec.

ReplyDeleteHey Bec!
ReplyDeleteI'm a friend of a friend from Mars Hill traveling around the world like you are but going in the opposite direction =P I'm from Seattle, go to school in Richmond, VA, but am now in Spain and heading to Tunis. I love the way you write and your perspective on my hometown! And that you love Jesus :) I seriously wouldn't have said hi if you hadn't asked, but if you're getting views from Spain, that's me!

Thanks for replying! :) You're great!!
DeleteHi there Bec,
ReplyDeleteSince you asked so nicely...
My name's Matt.
I'm a friend of someone who works at SIMAID and she forwarded me your blog!
It's been a real privilege and encouragement to read your posts...coming from someone who is both a media/comms grad (ie. your syntax is super good) and a fellow bro in Christ (ie. Jesus = no.1).
God has clealy given you a gift in communicating and entertaining via words, keep doing what you're doing for His glory!
Peace,
Matt.
p.s. I'm from Sydney, I study at SMBC, I'm super passionate about movies and media/communications (which I studied at uni)...and I really love sparkling mineral water (what a snob!).
Hi Matt!
DeleteThank you so much for replying, it's GREAT to (sort of) meet you!
I really appreciate you stopping by and reading my little ramblings.
And sparkling mineral water?! Amazing, I'm with you on that one.
Have a great one!
