(no subject)
I was asked a few minutes ago if I knew what I was going to do when I graduate school in December. After the usual response of "I have no clue," I thought how wonderful it'd be to continue to live at home, spend my money on traveling, and just write poetry in my free time. Of course I'd have to have some kind of job to sustain my traveling money, but Publix won't get rid of me anytime soon. I'll write poetry, short stories, and non-fiction, maybe get some published if I'm really ambitious, and learn how to cook. I'd practice piano, maybe compose some stuff with my brother, and record on the arrangements of worship songs he's doing.
Writing it out like that, it doesn't sound like a really bad plan. Why I feel like I have to run out and get some full time job when I'll be barely 22 is beyond me.
Our society rushes us into "doing" something, "do" something with your life. I think we place too much emphasis on what we do, and not enough on "being" something.
If life is all about relationships, shouldn't we be more concerned with 'being' the kind of wife, mother, girlfriend, sister, daughter, brother, father, husband, friend, etc. that God intends us to be, instead of always rushing around trying to "do" stuff?
Maybe it's just me.
