It's always scary when approaching something where there is an unknown on the other side of the line. I'm one of those people who makes sure I packed enough for whatever element I may be faced with and constantly has my planner with everything mapped out down to the minute almost. One could say I like to be in control of my life. I simply like to know what is happening around me. Since school has finished and I am almost officially a college student (I still have orientation so therefore its not official yet) I have taken the past week to NOT plan out my minute to minute move.
Two reasons:
1.My planner would be covered in black ink and then I wouldn't be able to read anything I wrote
2.I'm trying to live life freely {It's very stressful}
Its awful and sometimes I flip out because I don't know what I'm doing. But Ice Cream is happiness so life is good.
My life has been very busy lately. STATE TRACK!!!!! is only four days away! I'm nervous and excited and ready to run all at the same time. Then, we are moving across the country. But then I have to come back here to go to college in August so I have to sort out what I want where and when and the whole shebang. That is very time consuming. And I'm also trying to hang out with my friends as much as possible before I traverse the eastern countryside. It's very stressful and the anxiety levels are through the roof at points. But we are making it through one day at a time!
However though my life seems crazy and their are about 1.6 billion unknowns (yes, I'm exaggerating) I couldn't be more excited for the adventures that lay ahead of me. There are points in our lives when we simply have to take a chance and go for whatever we may be wanting to do. Now I'm not in anyway saying "Take a chance! Go jump off a cliff and see if you live!" Because that is down right silly and lacking of common sense.
In the end we will only regret the chances we didn't take. You never know how something may turn out. You could end up finding your true passion, love, fear maybe? I'm not sure what exactly you'll find. My one wish for you is that you don't go through life and regret not taking that chance. Where one door shuts, another one will open as the saying goes. This is completely true! Life can't always be perfect. But you'll figure it out eventually. I promise you that much!
Right now I really want to see God's blueprints of what he has in store for my future. However because it's God, I know I probably can't see them. We must trust in the Lord for he has prepared the perfect path for us. God knows what we need and when we need it. Sometimes we just need to take things one step at a time. One must understand that in order to discover what Christ has in store for us, one must take a chance.
Never regret the chances you didn't take and live life to the fullest. Life is a wonderful thing.
Yours Truly,
Meg
Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.
