Wow

God has an amazing imagination...

Life, what is it about?

I'm writing to you, the reader. I don't know your life story, your up-bringing, or your current state of well being. All I have to offer to you are thoughts; random musings from a mind that never seems to sleep. I offer you, a unique twist to a boring realization I'd like to call "life."

I've heard some say, "I've got a case of the Monday's!" What does this really mean? Does it mean you are bored, tired, sick of work? Perhaps life is boring or you can't seem to get out of a "rut" you find yourself in. Is this truly what life is all about? Is this what God had in mind when he said "You shall have life abundantly." An abundance of Monday's? Or perhaps Thursdays. You know, that day that seems to be longer than the rest because it's almost Friday. What do you think?

Is it possible to live life? Can you truly live out a full life? I find myself wanting vast moments of time to fly by. I'm at work and can't wait for it to be over, or I have a fun social event or get-together later tonight so I want the time between now and then to race by. College was something I wanted to go away. Could I have made something more of it?

How does God want you and I to live life? How do we embrace the ordinary and make it extraordinary? I really, truly want to know. I feel as if I'm blowing through life and I don't know how to stop and smell the roses if you will. I also don't know how to escape routine. It seems life is made up of nothing but routines. If you don't jump into one you will be lost forever.

So I ask you, how can you live to love and love to live?

new pj's

you should never underestimate the power of new pajamas.

1. they are all comfy and not worn out in the wrong spots
2. they make you feel really good about yourself
3. they match, unlike the rest of your tshirt/sweatpants combinations
4. when you wake up wearing them you think, 'oh wow, i have on new pajamas! this is going to be a great day!'
5. they have super powers.

Showoff

Sometimes I wonder if God likes to be a "big show-off". I haven't been fishing in a really long time and decided last night I'd change that. A friend of mine and I set off for a night of fishing. What I didn't expect, were Geese to land in the water right next to us, or the amazing and beautifully colored fish we caught.

These Geese flew in really low to the water, and just like an airplane used their feet to slow down. They literally skiied until they sank. It was amazing!

It was as if God was telling me, " hey you live in a world created by humans for humans, watch what I made! What did you think!?!?"

started my new job today! love it!

now i just need a place to live...
