Random Thoughts

So here I am. I am sitting at my computer being lazy (you know, checking e-mails, browsing Facebook, listening to music). I don't feel like doing homework (though this is technically homework, my favorite assignment!). Cleaning doesn't look appealing considering I just got off work. To be honest, I am probably the only one in the world who is not ecstatic that it's Friday (weird, huh?). There are a multitude of reasons, but mainly the monotonous routine of life. I am not "depressed," but simply tired of the same old things. Busy week, then busy weekend. School during the day, then homework for the rest. Going to bed late, then waking up early. Don't you ever get tired of it all?

I guess the solution is to live life at the fullest. To not worry about tomorrow or dwell on the past. When I looked up the word "worry" on BibleGateway.com, there were a total of 15 references, 13 of which were in the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), and 6 of which were in Matthew. My favorite (which I should remind myself every day) is Matthew 6:34: "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." This verse is wise advice for life, but easier said than done!

Today, I decided to write out my thoughts. After about a month of continuous writing, I have realized that this helps with the chaos of life. It's almost like someone is listening to me explaining my thoughts the very moment I type them out. This is encouraging. I know God is always listening, but there's just something about actually "writing." As shocking as it sounds, I used to hate writing. It was a tedious task which had to be completed in order to receive an A. I didn't realize what writing truly was. It is simply another form of communication. I like to talk (probably too much). If I think of writing in terms of talking, it becomes more of a hobby compared the previously thought "boring" chore. However, the revising and organization of writing is what I dread. My brain is naturally scatter-brained. To stay on one topic for the entirety of a blog post is nearly impossible. I usually end up separating into at least three different topics, which unfortunately cannot be separated in the form of paragraphs.
