The rarity of this morning shocked me, as I managed to "sleep in" until eight o' clock, and still start school by my normal eight thirty. I might just have to try that more often.
Today was filled with speeches to practice, papers to write, vocabulary to learn, and modules to read. Spare moments have been scarce, but I soaked in each one I could find. It has been a tiring day undoubtedly, and this could possilby be the shortest entry yet, but we will see how long my fingers can blurt out the sentences that are sometimes so hard to describe to you, reader. But please know that i give it my best.
I've been thinking today about how overrated people sometimes make the opinion of their aquantances...to the point that it becomes morbid. Why? What is so important about the opinion of those around us...not that it necesarrily shouldn't matter, but should it consume our minds so much as it does many people? The way we dress...act...speak...present ourselves...and even the way we listen changes depending on our audience. It makes me quite sad that many people have not had the opportunity that I have had- to grow up around a majority of Godly people and not feel nearly as much peer pressure. I just can't imagine how it feels to not have that... though i surely am not saying i don't know pain, hurt, grief, or slight insecurity from time to time...of course it happens.
The ugly room meeting was fine tonight. Distracting, as usual, but I assume that one day i will get used to it. We are studying still the book of John, and it has been quite interesting. I have learned so much that I would never have known. I think that Ms. Delnora's teaching style fits my learning style beautifully; I can just learn anything from her (biology, the bible....).
Well, I'm afraid this Wednesday Dreaming has drifted beyond the day it was intended for, as midnight has passed and Thursday has come before my eyes...i guess i can leave you with just this on my mind- don't take a second for granted, but enjoy each minute and live it out to its fullest. God's timing is perfect...and while it may not always seem perfect or comfortable, he always offers peace as a side effect of living in that timing....
have a wonderful night,
abby
