Crazy how statistics begin to show whatever you want them to? I have come to the revelation that my semester is almost done... my undergrad degree is almost done... and well life begins... If we have advertising and other things out in the real world that are misleading similar to what statistics sometimes may show.. how am I as a simple individual suppose to differentiate and understand where and what to do in life. There must be some balance between what we want, what we know we should do, and what we thing God, or a higher power may want in our life. But how am I suppose to develop this "truth" for my life without becoming to pragmatetic in my philosophy and metaphysics. I know that in some regards I am simply existentialistic at heart by Sarte's defination of choice and responsiblily with an addition of God. Trust in God.... Truth for my life...

As my time that I am categorized as a "kid" diminishes I am only reminded of the Toys 'R Us slogan of, "I don't want to grow up I am a toys 'r us kid!" The "real world" is upon me... life changing and guiding choices are hidden beneath ever innocent decision made. Graduation is nearing and understanding of what next is decreasing with every passing day. God has called me to do this so far.... but have I made what I want next my own or is that still God's too? Well I don't know how to answer that? But I suppose that all will be answered by the doors opened and closed by God himself.

Life has always seemed like such a pre-packaged, just ad water kind of kit until recently when my worldview and everything associated with it was shattered into countless pieces and the all to common saying of "Tomorrow is not promised to you" seems to ring truer than ever. Tomorrow has always been automatically affiliated with a goal and now I feel like God has brought me to a point in my life where there is no goal, but simple guniune reliance on him. Up to this point in my life I have never really had to think about much.... go to school.. look forward to my driver's license.. then to graduation.. and then it was a given that college was next... you look forward to the preverbal age of 21 just because of the freedom and media hype that has been applied... and then graduation from college seems to be the next step... with a job... family and career within sight. But my life has been turned upside down and it isn't so neat any more and I am not sure that it is suppose to be neat. Uncomfortable seems to be more beneficial for me! Pressure, stress, ignorance seems to only led to growth, trust, and knowledge. God is mysterious and all-knowing and I have to remember that I am NOT! God's timing is perfect so now that my worldvision has be readjusted for me to look to the now not to the future whether minutes... hours.. days... months.. years and beyond.. because God's got me and he is going to take care of me. I know that there is of course times and circumstances to look further in the future but be cautious because I think that doing so is a very slippery downward slope that can easily turn into misguidance and/or sin.

Thank you God for today... and your immense planning and knowledge of my life and your wisdom of when to reveal it to me perfectly. I am yours to use wholly!
