For Such a Time as This

Today was super, so I have a lot to ponder here tonight. This could be good news for you, or it could be bad news for you in which case...why are you even reading this?!

First off I must pause because the vertigo has just struck me in a strange fit, so I need to take care of that. It's really quite a hindrance to have this problem, but fortunately it tends to come at times when I'm not doing anything terribly important.

Now that I've settled that issue I'd like to discuss scheduling and stress management. I just put in all the dates that I had left to schedule for the semester, and I realized that I have ONE free weekend that's not involved in spring break left until graduation. ONE. So in order for me to avoid losing my mind completely, I'm going to be trying to breathe as much as possible and spend as little time at events that I don't REALLY want to be at.

While on this topic, I'd like to formally apologize to the individual who tried to convince me over the summer that I didn't have time for them when I was at school due to the insanity of my schedule. While I can't fully believe that the best of intentions were behind this statement, I realized tonight that this statement holds truth. Even if I wanted to make time I couldn't.

And why, you ask, is this such an issue? I've finally found a bit of courage within myself to go after what I really want. One of the things I find that I increasingly desire every time I'm in the correct company is the exact thing I have absolutely no time to sustain. However, while this will cause me to sigh heavily every night before I fall asleep, I know it's for good. I know God is weaving a plan in my life that I can't yet see and that there are obvious hindrances here, but sometimes my patience wears a little thin. It's at those times that God puts someone in my face to remind me that my immediate desires can't even hold a candle to my eternal reward.

Perhaps tomorrow I'll do a "My Favorite Things" blog again with more force than the last to spice things back up here. I know not everyone ACTUALLY wants to read the details of my life.
