Getting Lost

Why is it that when things get extremely busy and crazy we forget to stop and realize what's going on? THe days fly by and are spent with things we may not always love doing, but why do we continue to do them? For me, Im seeing a destination, which is throwing me off course. I'm expecting things to happen NOW and im expecting all my goals to be completed SOON. but what i need to realize is that all this hard work is indeed a process, and you can't have something without working for it.

"in order to get something you've never had, you gotta do something you've never done." with that said, i need to enjoy the process more and feel the improvement, rather than be angry that my goals have not been reached quite yet. I keep telling myself they will be, yet rather than drilling that in my head, I need to simply let it happen. Let God do what he does best, and let whatever happens happen for a reason.

So many times I find myself doing things and I ask myself, why am i doing this? How will this ever make a difference?

Just gotta keep on keepin on....

can't wait for santa barbara this weekend, home makes everything feel better :)

love,

Sunny Orange County

It's sooo nice outside, as I am again reminded of how lucky I am to live in such a beautiful place. It's not like santa barbara, but it comes close enough. It's finally beginning to get warmer again (although the weekend forecast is rain)...but we'll see how that goes! It's getting hard to focus in class when you look outside and you KNOW its 80 degrees and you are NOT at the beach! haha it sucks. But luckily I have hawaii coming up soon, so i cant complain...

Lent starts tomorrow, and my roommate and I are taking it seriously for the first time in our lives. We are both giving up Facebook. It will be hard, we realize that, but we are both concentrating on taking more time out of our day for God. So much of our days are consumed on the computer and it really does take up too much time in our daily lives. So why not try getting more things done for once? And really trying to communicate with others rather than through facebook? And really give up something that we know we indulge too much time into.

I got LOTS on my mind right now...

I guess i just don't feel like writing it all out at the moment. But maybe sooooon.

ALWAYSSS,
