I'm sitting at a desk, drinking out of a giant thermos of coffee that says "C-Bot" on the front. I'm listening to a song about giving your fears and worries up to God. "Breathe in now, receive another name. Breathe in now, live without the pain." I just keep listening to this song this week. I've worried so much this week. It got to the point that my neck just felt so strained and tight. I just needed a break. On Thursday I met with my mentor, Sarah. I had a good mango drink and we talked about life. I realized something. I cannot give 100% to every class I'm in and everything I'm involved in. That just isn't possible. All that God requires of me is that I do my best. I just need to give as much as I can to each thing. And that's all I can do. Beyond that, I cannot worry. If I've given as much as I can give, then there's nothing to worry about. I can be content. Man I want that mango drink right now.
Anyway. I still want to fly out of the country. I think about it all the time. How much I want to just go to Guatemala and work at an orphanage. Or go there and help out at JPC (YFC) for the summer. I want to sooo badly. Money holds us back so much from doing the things we want to do. Or I could fly to Calcutta and work with nuns that Mother Teresa worked with. How sweet would that be? Or go to Africa and hang out with some elephants! As you can see, I get pretty excited about stuff like this. Well..someday..it'll happen someday...I hope.
I'm going to start exercising. I hear it relieves stress and makes you feel better. Plus, it keeps you healthy. So I went to the gym yesterday and went on the eliptical for like 40 minutes. It was really nice. I liked it. Good music listening time.
Anyway...that's all.
