Of the following 3 good things, 2 of them happened to me today:

• I received, in writing, the highest paying job offer for this summer yet
• I found out that I got A’s on all the tests I took before the break
• I got a free t-shirt

Of the following 3 bad things, 2 of them happened to me today:

• I had a terrible night’s sleep because a cat kept licking my head
• I passed out in a pool of my own vomit
• I got rear-ended in stop and go traffic on 360

When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also. And you know the way where I am going. ~ John  14:1-4

Man, I need another break.

I’m tired.

I’m tired of uncertainty. I’m tired of waiting for things that do not come. I’m tired of doing the things I feel I’m obliged to do instead of the things I know I truly need to do. Fearing unknown demons instead of facing the ones at my back.

And yet it is the way of all progress that it is made by passing through some stages of instability — and that may take a long time.
