Inexcusable Absence

Apr 16, 2006 00:11

I know, it has been far too long since my last entry. No excuses ar acceptable, all I can say is that it has been a busy time. I was squaring away the details of financial aid to close out the semester and procrastinating on finishing up my taxes. I swear it's an entirely different language outside of english. Tax lingo is right up there with mathematics. I despise math and have a very low tolerance for it, leaving me impatient and bothered.

Pleased with the state of the weather for the past week or so. It's so nice to be able to head outside touch the soccer ball around, or hit at the tennis courts whenever I please. Oh how I enjoy this time of year. I live to be outside and anxiously await the first chance to go bass fishing.

Recently punched out the details with my best friend from high school, Chris. The lad is going to be graduating from Princeton this June and I shall be going down to N.J. to see him graduate. I guess the ceremony is amazing having famous bands and such play there, all the while endless amounts of social gatherings and as much food as your heart desires. I'm truly proud of the man. He's easily one of the most intelligent people I have ever met. I can't wait to see him and the world in which he's lived in for the past four years.

Also anxious to make it back home to see my little nephew, I hear daily of how chunky he's getting and can't wait to see how he's grown. It'll be nice to see my family as its been some time since I've been home. On a sad note the soccer tournament that I was anticipating so much is endanger of never happening, however, there's always the likelihood of a summer adult league so excited for that. I love how soccer challenges me in areas outside of the solitary sports of tennis and golf. I like the control of those sports and the required teamwork of soccer makes me more accountable for my skill. I do enjoy a good challenge and soccer has yet to fail in that quest.

I'm excited for the Easter service at my church, as on any other sunday it offers such praise to the Lord. I do love it. And what do you know, I'm actually getting a little tired which means that I will be well rested for the service. I prefer being completely aware when I go to the service, however some sundays prove more difficult to wake up for than others. Nonetheless I need the motivation that the sermon offers in my daily life to continue my quest for knowledge for the Lord's will. It's odd whenever I miss a service I find myself struggling during the week and straying away from the path that He's laid for me. So I guess that's why attending worship means so much to me. I often find myself caught up in the confusion of school and neglect to set aside the necessary time to devote myself to prayer and reading. Those that are close to me know that discipline and routine are treasured by me because I find for myself that those things are required for me to live a truly efficient and godly life. You see others given into their desires, attaining shallow pleasures, that it's difficult to heed and address the morality of the situation. All the same I'm happy to say the thus far I've continued with strength and fortitude. I'm never content with my standing knowing that there is always a higher level to reach. The whole magnitude of being is minuscule in amount when compared to the power and presence of the Lord. It's this knowledge that urges me to continually strive to be something greater.

Well starting to be overcome with exhaustion. God bless and a pleasant evening for all.
