Time

It's really strange how fast time seems to pass. I feel like I should still be a little kid, playing make-believe with sticks as swords. But then something happens to remind me that I'm not that little kid anymore. One of my more recent reality checks was having a meeting to plan my graduation. A friend and I are doing our graduations together, and our moms wanted to talk about it. It's exciting to be finishing with school, but at the same time it's also intimidating. Once I'm done with school, there won't be a set thing for me to do. I have to take a step into the world of being an adult, and start making my own decisions. Yes, my parents will still help guide me, and I can always rely on God to show me His will; but it's still a slightly scary thought! 
After realizing this, one of the main things I thought of was spending time wisely. You only get one life, and each minute is ticking by inexorably. Are you letting time slip by, wasted? Or are you doing something productive? I've started evaluating, and there's a lot of things I could be doing better. My challenge now is to do them, and not waste my life once I'm done with school.

  1. I have had some of that same experience the last 2 years. It is intimidating! It shows me again how much I need to rely on God in all my decisions! Thanks for sharing Manda!
