My soul is feeling much better. :) I've been reading
Sense and Sensibility most of today. Jane Austen puts life into perspective beautifully, and she is a wonderful distraction. Then I attended a percussion concert this evening, performed at UMSL by a bunch of Juilliard students and others. Highly enjoyable!
Actually, I think it was typing everything out in the previous post that helped. I think my soul was restless because God always makes me feel miserable when I'm not deciding something I need to decide. I think it is right to go straight to grad school. Taking a year off is the easy option. Maybe I'll feel differently later. Maybe I'll still take the year off. But right now, I'm going to apply to grad schools as if I'm attending one of them the year after I graduate PHC.
