Time

I have been thinking a lot about time the last couple of days. I find it hard to believe that it is already November. Time sure does seem to go by quicker the older you get, it's probably because you have more to do. If you think about it, it makes complete sense. More work= less time; and Less work= more time. So when we were kids and had nothing to do it always seemed like the years dragged on, and now when we don't have many moments to breathe we find ourselves wondering where the time has gone.

It seems to me like just yesterday was last november. I was in SD, in school, studying very hard. And I remember the snow and how cold it was every morning as I got up and walked to class. And now a year later I find myself a world away from that place. At this time last year, I never in a million years would have imagined I would be where I am today.

It makes me think about where I will be next year at this time. I am trying my hardest not to make too many plans because I know they always seem to change, but I can't help but imagine where the next year will take me. Where will I be? What will I be doing? Will I be happy? Will I be the same, or will I be different? I am not sure.

All I know is that I want to be the best steward possible of the time that God gives me. I have realized lately how short time can be. Our days are fragile, and we are like a vapor, here today and gone tommorow. And who knows when our time will be up? Only God! I am starting to see each day more and more like a gift. There are so many things to do and see, and I want to experience the full potential that lies in from of me. The possibilities in the future are limitless really, and I want to start living in the NOW, in the PRESENT.

I often get consumed in the PAST. Remembering my failures and my mistakes, and I often loose track of time. I want to stop focusing so much on the past because it is already over with and all I have is right NOW... So I might as well start being consumed by the present. And I believe as I start focusing more on the here and now, I will truly realize the possibilities for my future....

I can't wait to see where I will be next year...
