i've been thinking A LOT about where i've been and where i'm going. a short recap:
I'm 25, have a master's degree, completed an ironman, traveled the world a bit, quit my well paying job 3 months ago, am building a house in the mountains, as a result of my new "job" my relationships are taking on this funky dynamic, and other than following/loving Jesus and loving people as best i know how i have very little direction.
BUT in the here and now - last night was some fun dancing, and today was more EPIC snowboarding. till later.

hey stud.
u have accomplished quite a bit in ur young 25 yrs. let's take a recap of my 21 years thus far...ummm...
actually, i don't know that i've acomplished too much yet.
i've: worked with highschool ministry, traveled to mexico four times, played music at a coffee shop, moved at least 5 times, coming to william jessup university being my sixth. i've recieved enough credits in community college for an AA in arts and letters but have yet to petition for it, and, i'm trying to learn to love God and trust Him more all while attempting to find some place of peace or belonging where i don't ever get that feeling of emptiness or loss of love. and i've been to the beautiful ocean...and soon will see one even more beautiful, and i have made great friends in my life, u being one too. hey this is long so i'm stopping. directions please.
the accomplishments aren't so much the struggle or problem......and i don't take them for granted, although they are all things anyone can do and i firmly believe that......i guess what i'm pondering is okay i've done some cool things - neat, but what am i becoming? where am i going? where should i go? where do i want to go? i think it's this last one that has got me stumped the most. so i've been looking at where i've been to see how i got to where i am and working through making decisions today that will take me to a place where God's love is abounding and i feel like i fit. one thought i've had lately is that perhaps my struggle lies within my own eccentricity. i'm having a hard time finding/thinking of pre-existing environments where i feel like i would fit.
"...but what am i becoming? where am i going? where should i go? where do i want to go?"
Dude, do what I'm doing right now:boycott it all.
"boycott it all".....i've entertained that idea but it sort of goes against who i am, plus i catch glimpses of the formation that is occuring from the wrestling. the thing i do need to do is not lose today in tomorrow.
overachiever:p
