Mainly I work a lot, read a lot, bike a little, and try to remain hopeful. This summer tends to be a bit more boring than the past two, mainly because I am at home.
I am currently reading the unabridged version of Les Miserables... a great but long book. My two favorites cd's as of late are David Crowder's All I Can Say, and U2's All that you can't leave behind. Right now they both just speak to me where I am.
Sometimes I let myself fall into a slump, where I get a bit sad, because it seems like the few things in life I really want are so far away right now. I am trying my best to not be too sad, and to remain hopeful, but it is hard, because it seems like I am always on the outside, looking in. Meaning that my friends always have what I want, but cannot seem to get. For example a girlfriend and a decent car. I know in time both of those will come, but I just look where I came from, and am afraid that I will end up like that. I guess it is harder right now then previously, because I did just break up with my first girlfriend. So it just feels like it is bound for me to be alone. I am learning to not focus on those few things that I don't have, because then life would really suck, and rather to focus on what I do have, and how I can serve others, and bring the things I have gone through in the past, and experienced to the table to help others not make the same mistakes, or at least to help them work through the pain. I wish I could time travel to ten years from now, to just be there for a day and see how it will be then. I wonder what will be different?
