Almost forgot…

Ever question how someone could ever say it’s beautiful in Idaho?  (I guess if you don’t live by, near, or for some crazy reason have never been to Idaho that thought may never cross your mind) well…just wanted to let you see a BEAUTIFUL sunset.   Amazing Sunset

So it’s finally up…

January 23, 2008

Am I happy to announce to all those around that this is finally up…well…ya.  Except there seems to be one problem, I think I’m only announcing it to myself.  Oh well.  After all this time I’m finally able to get my thoughts from my head and my little orange pad to this Mac of mine and online.  Hard work ya know.  So…to whoever reads this A) definitely let me know and B) thanks for taking your time to read my words and sometimes thoughts about life, love, and why.  Today, this past week, and these past few months have really caused me to think about several subjects.  Wow, what a general, vague statement one may say, but really, when those same subjects keep showing up it seems that I might be correct in saying that “they are always on my mind.” So that’s what I’m writing about.  Not about the busy life of myself, the schedule of my day, but maybe some of those thoughts that strike me in such a way that I say “hey, I wish I could spend some quality time discussing that.”  So, hopefully someone will stumble across this at some point in their life and say that they might have thought about some of the same issues.  Plus, even if nobody does such a thing, well…it will be just a great way for me to dialogue with myself about the many life choices that are in front of me as we speak. Should I move to Kansas City and attend NTS to obtain my masters, should I go down and experience the amazing place of Brazil and build relationships with all of those people over a short or extended period of time, should I move to Ellensburg Wa and begin working at The River (church plant), should I consider this thing called marriage with Steph, or should I consider any combination of these options?  That seems to be the hot question right now. Actually, I take that back.  The hot question is, “so you are graduating in May…what next?”  I’d be a rich college kid if I was given a dime for every time I heard that this year.  So a majority of what I write may revolve around those questions or topics but hey, I can’t really say.  Lastly, I saw this movie the other night.   Shallow Hal was it’s name I do believe.  Decent movie, and it did have well…the rather obvious plot line but it also raised a good point.  The thought that “the grass is always greener on the other side” and how true that really can be in life.  Like, girls on campus are always more attractive when you are dating someone than when you aren’t.  They’re attractive until you realize that it so crazy superficial, and really not what you are looking for and that you really miss what you had because what you had was so good, genuine and not based of stupid assumptions.  How we are always quick to assume and stereotype without really getting to know anyone for what they are worth.  Just something to think about.  and oh…some people wonder what college students actually do.  Well…we take archery for one and it’s hard work.  Just check out this crazy sweet bruise.  That’s all for tonight, time to hit the hay and well…Enjoy the day tomorrow.Crazy Bruise

If I wake with bad dreams of tim and weddings and such…I’ll know why but for some reason I just don’t think I’m going to be able to sleep after seeing these stupid dogs on Conan tonight. Anyways, it’s late, it’s my first post…and I’m officially going to bed…NOW!!! GOODNIGHT!!!
