The Journey of My Lifetime.

So you know how people always say, "it will be the journey of a lifetime"? Well I just want to share with you several Journey's of MY lifetime. There are quite a few doors open to a female nowadays, but I really don't want to live my life working in a store or at an office, I also don't just want to go thru the motions as a human being, I want Life to matter, not just to me but to my future husband, my family, and anyone who will ever know me, I want a life on fire. I've come to realize that it's not just me who wants this but everyone. They might have different opinions of what life should be, but they all want it. And you know what? Everyone tries to find it wherever they think it should be, whether in friends, work, stuff, they all think they're on their way only to be disappointed yet again. Why? Why is it So hard to be satisfied with where we're at now? There's this little word that I really like it's named 'Contentment'. Ever heard of him? of course you haven't, he isn't very well known this century, or at least, he's all but drowned out by all the voices out there screaming that your deprived, have no hope, and that you have controlling parents who've never learned how to parent. Lies all of them. Well actually yes you might be deprived (for your own good), there may not be hope of change, and your parents probably don't know all there is to know about kids, but listen that's the very nature of my friend Contentment. He's so awesome he teaches you how to be happy even in the most annoying situations imaginable. It makes me think of Paul, he was stuck in prison but guess what his close friend (contentment's Great-Grandfather) Contentment was informed by God that Paul would need him there, so contentment upped and went to visit Paul, and Paul was so happy to have him there he began to rejoice to God for sending him. So I've found out the only way to last in my Huge Journey, to live a life on Fire, is to trust God's judgment in sending contentment to be by my side, and to yes look forward, but most importantly figure out what I can do in the Now times of my life. What can you do in the everyday moments called Now? What difference can you make in the World?
