TIME

There's only so much time in a day or a week. What most people tend to do is worry about what they're going to do with their time, or at least I do. I mean what does "Wasting time" even mean? I've been told that I was wasting my time before at one point in my life.

No I don't believe in the wasting of time,
But I don't believe that I'm wasting mine
-Fiona Apple

I agree with Fiona. How can you be wasting your time if your doing something you love or it's working towards something you would love?
I once suggested to some one the choice of not going to collage. They immediately told me I was dumb and narrow minded for thinking that.
But the thing is this, everyone has things that they like to do and that they don't like to do. Everyone has been told something all of their life.
Most parents raise their kids to think all there is to life is work and you must do good in school and go to collage and get a good paying job to support your family and if your wealthy it means your successful. I don't want to raise my kids that way. I don't want to force them to believe something. If your forced to do something, most of the time you won't be happy doing it. Like in the story Bridge to Teribithia after the church scene when they're all driving home and Jessie goes on about how he didn't think she liked going to church becayse he never liked it but she did. He didn't like it caused he was always forced to go and Leslie, who had never been to church, thought it was a beautiful thing.

I've been thinking about what I might do when I get older, and the picture in my mind is way too broad I have so many things I would like to do but like I said thate's not enough time for me to do everything I want to do, so I need to decide on one thing.

Choice 1.
I could go to collage major in photojournalism and directly start working right out of collage. Later, get married have kids and be a housewife.

Choice 2.
I could go to Bible school just to learn more about the bible and just get a job to keep me up and running and one day maybe get married and have kids and be a housewife from there on and maybe work sometimes.

Choice 3.
I could go to collage and major in education and be a teacher. The only flaw in that decision is that I would be working with many kids at once and I'm not sure I could handle it. But also get married and have kids and continue teaching until I want to retire.

Choice 4.
Kara suggested the other day maybe speech Therapy for children would be something good for me. I'd be teaching them and only be working with one child at a time. Then get married and maybed work part time.

Choice 5.
I could completely throw out the Idea of getting married and having kids and just work a ton and maybe adopt kids later.

Choice 6.
I could go to buisness school and major in accounting since I'm good with math and whatnot. Then Get married and have kids and be a housewife until they all get their own cars and then maybe go back to being an accountant.

All of these things I could definately try for and there are infinately many more things I might consider. Maybe I'm just thinking about it far too much. *sighs*

It's good that you're already really thinking about what you'll be doing when you're older. But don't agonize; you've still got 3 years in high school. Pray about it and just go where God takes you, and you'll do fine. =]
