Okay...so this is going to be a long post hopefully...enter lj cut!
Does he ever get the girl?
I've been thinking a lot about life lately. I know, no one cares, but maybe I'll get a comment that's worthwhile and meaningful. People tell me what I should be doing with my life all the time. "You should go into teaching." and things like that. Why do people think that they know what's best for me? It makes me feel like they know that I might have things I'd like to do, but their plans for me are that much more important and necessary. Why can't I just listen to my own heart and figure out what I want/need on my own?
I've also sorta been wondering how people can get married within like 3 months of knowing each other. And the weird part is how some of them last forever. How long do you have to know someone to know that they are the one you want to spend the rest of your life with them? Is that what truely being in love is? If so, are most of the married people in the world married to someone who isn't necessarily their soul mate? That scares me. I guess I'm not sure how that all works.
I'm also trying to find out how long it is going to take me to figure out what I am actually going to do with my life. When is God going to tap me on the shoulder, turn me around, look into my eyes, pat my head and say, "Get'um Buck!" Okay, so he probably won't call me Buck, but I don't think I'd mind if he did. They say patience is a virtue...and I seem to be fresh out. It's hard. I thought I had such a bright future during high school. All that was just an illusion. The haze is clearing and I am finally realizing I am just like everyone else. I'm nothing special if you think about it. I just go to work and eat and sleep like the rest of the world. Maybe I'm just on crack.
