If there’s anything that I learned over the past week, it’s this: Be Still and know that someone is working on your behalf.
No, this is not an excuse for us to be lazy, sit around and think that, “Oh, everything’s working for my good anyway, so it would be better for me to just stay in bed all day.”
Certainly, that’s not what I’m talking about here. I’m talking about letting things that we have no control over go. This is an extremely hard lesson for me to learn because for one thing I’m an obsessive compulsive who wants to control every single event in my life. I want everything under control to the extent that I get frustrated when things don’t happen my way. I can be very hard-headed in particular areas (ahem) which is why I get my heart broken every single time.
It took me five years to understand the simple fact that He’s working so I better shut it.

I miss my high school friends. I don’t know I miss them more than I missed in the last three years. Something about being carefree and irresponsible maybe?

Currently reading this unknown book by some unknown author and I’m quite happy that I stumbled upon it. It’s quite fascinating really and the fact that I actually have time to read just amazes me.

I haven’t played volleyball in YEARS. So I don’t know what got into me when I agreed to play in my office’s sportsfest starting February. Maybe because I’d be saving some gym money since I’ll be getting the workout for free. Yes, that must be it because I have no idea why I have chosen to humiliate myself like that in front of my officemates :p

I have a college class today, I hope to remember that this group is made up of kids in thier late teens or early twenties and not fifth graders.
Oh how I miss those kiddos! E-mails are just not the same!

If you read this thing the whole way through: Congratulations and thank you. It was a bunch of mumbo-jumbos but thanks for finding it interesting. Cheetaw!
