Lots and Nothing to Think about All at the Same Time

So for a while I have felt off.

Life is going fairly well, I am finishing college, I have a girlfriend for the first time in years (and she is pretty awesome), I am applying to jobs waiting to hear back from one where the interview went well and applying to others, and I have friends.

There are also several potential projects that would provide new avenues for my creativity and gifts to shine through and develop.

But I have not had a passion in a while. No burning topic in the temporal or the spiritual that is captivating my attention.

While I have so much to learn about so many things I do not have that issue or topic that I care about.

Even my desire to work out what it means to have vision for myself, life and others has grown dull.

There is an exciting new chapter opening and an awesome chapter closing in my life right now...

I want passion and a topic or two that I am well versed in.

This blog may be redirected, left alone with the start of a second, or killed in favor of a second depending on what I choose to do.

This Blog was always for my close friends that wanted to know what I was up to as I struggled and worked through life. And I think overall it has done that.

But either I am going to fall away into obscurity or find the path I want to run down in my development as a person and as a child of God.

I hope for the latter.

That lack of a passion, vision, goal, or what ever you want to call it...is not missing, it's moving. You said it yourself, a whole new chapter is starting.

To start a new chapter you have close the old one. God's just making space for what's coming.

Well part of it is also that I went from having very few tangible things that would move from this chapter to the next to a lot so I am not quite sure how that works either.

so i thought i'd pick something ridiculous and obscure to poke at first off. i believe girlfriend is a singular word in the context in which you used it, otherwise it simply looks like you now have a friend who is a girl.

also, i don't think you will fall off into obscurity. i'll try and come keep your life interesting enough to stop that from happening
