Writing It Down

Davrielle: “You ever thought of making a dream board?”

Me: “No”

Davrielle: “Why not?”

Me:“I hate making plans for the future and I hate writing things down – aspirations, new years resolutions, future goals, all of it”

Davrielle: “Why do you hate making plans?”

Me:“I just feel as though they never go the way I expect them to go. What I plan never happens so why should I keep making them? – I actually stopped making plans from January 2012 to be honest”

Davrielle: *Picks up phone*

Me: “What are you doing?”

Davrielle: “Looking for that message when you told me to about making plans and making your requests known to God regardless of a situation….”

Me: “Mmm.. I see what you did there”

Most of the time, when I’m over-thinking life and my circumstances at a present moment I get knocked with scriptures left and right to help me out. This time, Saturday night I found myself stressing almost to the point of feeling immersed in depression, overwhelmed with school and there were no scriptures coming – thankfully I did have an awesome friend at the tips of my fingers to knock some sense into me but my mind was still surged with questions and I could barely think straight for those scriptures to flow. Why am I in school? Why did I take this major? What am I doing with my life now? What will I be doing after I graduate? What do I want out of life? Why does all of this matter again? No answers.

The next day my mom forced – called my phone shouting, telling me to find the file and update my 5 month old curriculum vitae. As I went to the “Personal Statement” part of it, all of my questions were answered.
