it's time to re-adjust to life in diamond bar. college was great. there's no other way for me to put it because words wouldn't do it justice. God gave me beautiful friends from whom i've learned more than i could have ever imagined. He gave me blessing after blessing, but also got me through all the screw ups i managed to create for myself. He taught me what it meant to truly love and laugh, cry and forgive, and He showed me how much easier my life could be if i would just live it in Him.
life isn't perfect. in fact, sometimes it downright sucks. someone told me once that when you look at life, you'll always find flaws and will never be satisfied, but if you look through it, you'll see all the imperfections as evidence that God is the only one who can ultimately satisfy our deepest hunger and see all the good as shadows of His presence here with us. my experience in college changed me in every way a person can be changed. i only hope that i won't let the real world fill me with cynicism and bitterness the way it so easily can. there were a lot of things i should and shouldn't have done, a lot of things left unsaid, and a lot that i wish i could have done better, but all of that is over now.
this blog will testify to my eclectic emotional rollercoaster and i hope it'll still be here in a few years so i can have some good laughs. i said it before and i'll say it again: for all my planning & expectation, God will always have His way. if i live my life in love and humility, i know i'll be alright ;)
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go.
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why.
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
So take the photographs, and still-frames in your mind.
Hang it on the shelf of good health and good time.
Tattoo's of memories and dead skin on trial.
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
