Isn't it crazy how time flies and things change? I am nearly three-fourths of the way though my associates degree, and I am trying so hard to figure out what I am supposed to do with my life. I had thought that I could be happy being a teacher, and I'm sure I would, but there is something in me that is driving me to not just look for something to settle on, but to choose a career that will challenge me and allow me to use my gifts. Journalism has crossed my mind many times before. My father and I were having a conversation recently about what major might be best for me, and he mentioned that he always thought that communications was the field I'd end up in. So, I'm rethinking journalism. But here's the question that's bugging me: Can success and happiness coexist, or will my ambition cause me to never be able to enjoy my place in life, always pushing me on further?
...2012 is going to be a very important year for me. I wish it wouldn't be.
Is your definition of "success" the worlds, or God's? To the world it's all about the money and whether you can afford a really schnazy place to call home. To the the Lord it's all about using your gifts to completely glorify Him, not yourself by looking good in the worlds standards. Do what you feel the Lord is calling you too, not what seems to have the most "success" within :) Ugh, I miss you and I love you!
