This is one of those "Let's pick Bekah's Brain" posts....
This is going to be totally random. Brace yourself because I am about to tell you everything I am thinking about right now.
1. This is a post posted on my dad's fantasy baseball league sight (I have been managing it for the past week)It's one of those forward, forward, forward, I hope this makes you feel fuzzy, send it to ten people or die kinda chain emails, so here it goes.
As you might know, the head of a company survived 9/11 because his son started kindergarten.
Another fellow was alive because it was his turn to bring donuts.
One woman was late because her
alarm clock didn't go off in time.
One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike
because of an auto accident.
One of them missed his bus.
One spilled food on her clothes and had to take time to change.
One's car wouldn't start.
One went back to answer the telephone.
One had a child that dawdled
and didn't get ready as soon as he should have.
One couldn't get a taxi.
The one that struck me was the man
who put on a new pair of shoes that morning, took the various means to get to work but before he got there, he developed a blister on his foot. He stopped at a drugstore ! to buy a Band-Aid.
That is why he is alive today.
Now when I am stuck in traffic, miss an elevator, turn back to answer a ringing telephone...
all the little things that annoy me.
I think to myself, this is exactly where God wants me to be at this very moment.
Next time your morning seems to be
going wrong, the children are slow getting dressed, you can't seem to find the car keys, you hit every traffic light, don't get mad or frustrated; God is at work watching over you.
May God continue to bless you
with all those annoying little things and may you remember their possible purpose.
2. I feel very alone right now. I feel as if I'm starting a new era in my life. The part where it's my turn to step up and be a mentor to those a couple years younger than I. I feel like one by one, the people I've looked up to are leaving me. This may sound pathetic and stupid, but it's honestly how I feel right now.
3. How would you feel if for a year (or as Lindsey argues "You only need one week"), I gave up everything. All my money and time to live in a box. Honestly to depend on God to provide. To be totally dependent on Him and grow closer to him berfore starting my ministry as an adult as perhaps a missionary. Especially if I end up being single and a missionary. To make me stronger physically. I don't know. I'm probably not even making sense.
4. My parents are going to China.
5. I love the dictionary. I love looking things up to see what they mean. I don't know why, but it's become one of my favorite things to do.
6. Is is so wrong to blog one's thoughts?
7. If I knew that guys didn't read this blog, I'd vent some other frustrations right now.
8. My whole life has been me being more mature than the people in my class. I'm fed up with it about now.
9.You know what a funny word is? conform. I want to do anything BUT conform. I'm sick of it. It's all I see. "refreshingly original" is too much underused.
10. I wish I had one more thing to add to this so I could have an even 10.
