So I would have to say this weekend's NFTY CAR Kolbo went really well. I was just a member particpating in the programs and such, and I truly enjoyed myself. I liked the programs, and really had a chance to reconnect with people, and make new friends. I loved it.
So during the Friendship circle, the seniors had to get up and talk for a minute or so about their experiences in NFTY. I really had no idea what to say. I wasn't really involved in NFTY CAR or anything. I have been to 4 conclaves, convention, and EIE. But as I look back on the past four years, I really wish I got more involved in NFTY. Programming really isn't that bad. I thought it all really applied to our lives, and I felt like I could relate to it, and so I felt that allowed me to enjoy it more and take it all in. I really like the people. I like hanging with old friends, and meeting new people and having new friends within 2 days.
After this weekend, everything that happened, I realized how much timing is everything. How much our lives are influenced by time. I wonder, what would life be like if there was no time? Seconds, minutes and hours, days, weeks, and years. You know when you're asked out by a boy or something, and it seems like the excuse is always "The timing is just not right." It sucks. Or when a relationship has to end, because of timing. As I look back in time, I think of how my most significant relationships have ended because of timing. Elie, Stuckey, Josh, Paul. Timing just sucks. The school year is coming to end. The summer is about to begin. A whole new chapter in my life is about to start, and I have no idea of where I am going and what I am doing, and quite frankly, I am scared out of my mind.
I am so tired right now, I think I am going to fall asleep in front of the computer screen.
In conclusion, I really enjoyed this weekend. And I pray that God will take me on the path I need to follow in order to fulfill all I need to in life.
