I feel like so many people these day's have lost sense in direction in life, and where they are supposed to go. They are so lost in finding themself. It really does just break my heart. Because it's happening to the people i care most about. I just wish there was something i could do to help them find their way. It kills me to see people struggle so much in finding out where they need to go from here. Or where God is calling them. I know God has a way of totally rocking people's worlds. An sometimes it's hard to get back up on your feet. I just pray that these people turn to God for guidance, and they don't turn their back on him. Because as i have realized i can only do so much. I can only talk to them so many times, and give them only so much adive. There comes a time when they have to realize that sometimes God is the only one who can help them get through the rough times, and if you turn your back on him, your going to be even more lost. & I've realized that all I can do is just pray. Pray that God will lead them. & pray that they will listen to his calling.
I was over at Max's house today, and he was using my computer to burn a CD. & one song that he put on there was a song off of Thousand Foot Krutches newest album. An the song is called Wish You Well....When he played that song it just kind of blew my mind...and kind of helped me realize things. So here are the lyrics..and i hope you guys listen to the song as well;
Sometimes love, feels like pain, and sometimes I wonder if it's all the same, sometimes life, feels just like rain, cause you never know, when it's gonna
fall down on you
I wish you well, I wish you well, on this trip to find yourself, I wish you well, wish I could help, but I can't help you find yourself
Sometimes faith, feels like doubt, and sometimes I wonder if we'll even get out, sometimes life hurts just like now, but ya gotta know, it's all gonna
come back around
I wish you well, I wish you well, on this trip to find yourself, I wish you well, wish I could help, but I can't help you find yourself
find yourself,
I can't help you find yourself,
find yourself..
and we were sixteen at the time, nothing could ever change our minds, we were one step below invincible, and we always fought it, you've never been the
same, you were so scared to make a name, then you threw it all away, and i wish you'd come back now.
I wish you well, I wish you well, on this trip to find yourself, I wish you well, wish I could help, but I can't help you find yourself, I wish you well,
I wish you well, on this trip to find yourself, I wish you well, wish I could help, but I can't help you find you
I wish you well, I wish you well, on this trip to find yourself, I wish you well, wish I could help, but I can't help you find yourself
find yourself,
I can't help you find yourself,
find yourself,
I can't help you find yourself...
Anyways;
Whenever there is a time in your life where you have to make a big decison. The advice that almost everyone will give you is, "Do what makes YOU happy" or "Do what YOU want to do" "It's YOUR life, it's YOUR decison" I feel like i'm at a crossroad. I want to do what makes me happy. But I want everyone to support me. One thing i hate to do is upset people. My delima for the past couple of months have been what school to go to next year. & what I WANT is to go to Johnson. I've made that pretty clear in some of my past post's. Thats where i feel like i need to be. And i feel like that is the direction that God is calling me. But of course the Big issue is always Money. it's ALWAYS money money money! Huntingotn like i have said in the past is expensive, Johnson cuts the price in half. SO Johnson is definately a better choice money wise. But I will still have quite a bit of student loans. Which is not good. If I were to go to a public school i would totally be paid for. No student loans to worry about. I don't want to go to a public school. To be honest it scares me to death. I'm so much more comfortable in the christian environment. It's a big decison i have to make. Go for what i'm comfortable with, and what I WANT to do. Or go in the direction that others want me to take because it will be better financially? & push me to step out of my comfort zone? I just don't know. & it's stressful! VERY stressful!
thats all for now
Butler's playing!!! : )

Maggie! I am glad that I found your blog. Now I can keep up with ya girl. I support you girl. I think Johnson would be a great place for you. I had 40,000 dollars in student loans and I have about 13,000 left to pay off. What about not going to school next year. Get a fulltime job, save up most of it and use that to pay off a semester at Johnson. Sure you won't graduate as fast but at least you won't have to build up your student loan balance. No one says you have to graduate in four years.
ReplyDeleteMelissa, i'm glad you found my blog too!! : )
ReplyDeleteI have thought about taking a year off to just work. to be honest, i don't really know what to do at the moment. I feel like i'm a senior in highschool again, trying to figure all this college crap out! lol....but hopefully everything works out & i can go to Johnson! :)
miss you and love you!
