during all of this time, i think a lot. and that is how i arrived at blogger.com and created this page to post my thoughts. i have little else to do. and now i sit watching the cursor blink as i think of something semi-intelligent to say that other people may enjoy reading.
i've realized as of late that a lot of your college years are spent thinking about what you'll be doing when those precious years are over. i know when my friends and i get together the conversation often drifts to where we want to be in the next 2 or 3 years, the men we'll marry, and children. i love children and often find myself daydreaming about the day that i start a family of my own. but, when i talk about having a family with my family, my father always brings up the state of this world and all the reasons that he would not want to bring children into it. of course with this confession comes outrage from both my mother and i. we both love everything about babies. that's not it though. my mother and i share another trait that gives us hope for the world and makes us believe it is still okay to start a family in this day and age. what is that? it's jesus. it is the knowledge that no matter what the economy looks like, what north korea is doing and no matter who our president is, the person that is truly in charge is our God. and i have come to realize that as long as i, or anyone, has faith in the Lord they can see the hope that he brings. my prayer for my friends and family is that they can rejoice in the hope of the Lord, and that in will change the way they see the world.
i feel that was a good start to my blogging adventure. and now, laundry and packing await me. in less than 3 hours, the 100th episode of so you think you can dance will air and if you don't plan on watching it, change your plans.
until the next time, ht.
