Putting off a paper



So here I am, Monday morning and supposed to me working on my paper for my masters program while also tending to the annoyance that is this migraine. It is now 11:00 and I have gotten a little more than nothing done. I have done some other important things though such as read a riveting article on a long distance runner, and upload photos from my phone to my computer.

I attached a picture of the landscape from my trip to oklahoma for the OSU 10k spring tune up. Just thought that all would enjoy that. I have been thinking about religion and how it fits into nature and life. Don't get me wrong, it fits in perfectly. There is a obvious tie between the two but I have always had a notion that all religion is somehow intertwined, we are under the assumption that "our religion" is the correct one. I feel that it is completely possible that we are all interpreting the same omnipotent being. Taking these camping trips and being out in nature has made me feel closer to God than I have in awhile. Now I feel myself pushing away form the idea of being inside and following the rules set aside for how I have to worship. I realize that I am taking a selfish stand in this and sometimes wonder if I am making excuses for myself.

    Procrastinator!

    God desires a relationship with you. Seek it out. Ask questions. Seriously... He loves you passionately and gives you beautiful gifts (like nature every day) and He wants to be loved Passionately in return.

SPRING BREAK

It has been a long weekend and my spring break is almost over. Thursday we were out of school but had meetings all day. I know meetings don't sound like a whole lot of fun but they were surprisingly not that bad. After the meetings were over I had T Power take me by the Pharmacy and my house so I could get some sweats.  I got sweats so that I could go back to school and participate in a "lock in". Now don''t worry I was not in any danger, the doors were not locked (i checked). We did play dodge ball and kick ball as well as hen's and chicks.   If you have never met me I just want to warn you that I am a bit competitive and I may have gotten mad in kick ball and thrown it a little hard at my bosses wife. Oh well, she was out.  After all the old people were tuckered out from a long day of meetings and then a few intense games we left the building for the day. A few people stuck around and decided that it was time for some mexican food.....and drink.   A good tim...

When it rains....

There is a torrential downpour. A-Mo went to the doctor last night. She was having pain in her leg thinking it was sore muscles. Turned out to be two blood clots. Woah. My classroom is right next to A-Mo and she is always there when I need to talk. Was very worried about her today.  On top of this my financial situation is leaning towards dire. I may be eating cans of tuna this month..... the dented ones even.  I am horrible with money. I love to spend it. Wether I have it or not.  I just want to do nice things for the people I love. I am super nervous about being in T-town next year.... but at least I know a few people there. It is not like moving to V-town where I knew no one and seriously felt like I started from scratch. I spent the first two weeks before school started reading the ENTIRE Harry Potter Series... Though I wouldn't trade my time at Hogwarts for anything it was a tough time in my life. I am also closer to GraceSister without moving further from JoySister. Which is ...

True Joy of Life

True Joy of Life This is the true joy of life. The being used for a purpose Recognized by yourself as a mighty one. The being a force of nature Instead of a feverish, selfish Little clod of ailments and grievances Complaining that the world will not Devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life Belongs to the whole community And as long as I live,It is my privilege to do for it Whatever I can.I want to be thoroughly Used up when I die, For the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch Which I've got hold of For the moment And I want to make it burn As brightly as possible before Handling it on to future generations.
