Esta noche

I like the idea of a fresh screen for a new blog post, it's like a new blank canvas. It's so much easier to create & finish than a painting. Which is, well, nice.

Can I please go travel?? Right now?! Get on a plane and just go! (it would be my motto if I had the money to back it up with) Sadly, life beckons and requires me to be a responsible citizen and go to school & work. I get so caught up on how much time we spend working for a living, going to school for that living, and then the time we devote to our families/friends or doing something to better the world. The ratio just seems a tad unfair. But then, who said life was supposed to be? Maybe it's wishful thinking on our part, but certainly not truth. God calls us to a certain way of living, and that may mean having a type of job not desired or dealing with people when you'd rather be with your family. But that doesn't make it any less important, in fact that makes it all the more important because we're called to that life by the one who gave us breath to live it.

 I can have these thoughts but at the end of the day there are bigger things out there than my desire to travel & see the world & all it's adventures waiting. I'm pretty sure that He wants me to go to school in the Burg, & this is certainly where I'm gonna stay until that changes. Even if it doesn't, He's got something bigger planned that I can even imagine. Truth against my discontent. I'm going to let that win, and see where it takes me. Till then, I'll keep ya'll posted. ~
