Pondering a thought

One thing that I have come to enjoy is just sitting back and watching the people around me. This evening was no different. I was at my brothers Junior high spring concert and just walking out, listening to other peoples conversations around me (in a non creepy type way). A group of girls were talking about flats (shoes) and the arches they have-this short cameo converstation put a ponder of a thought in my head. When do we start caring about the things around us and realize how huge the world is? I think back to a year a go where I was...June 5 2007 I flew home after my stint in Europe. I left in March having no idea what to expect, and came home still now knowing where the next section in life would take me, but I came home different-changed even. I can never fully described what happended inside of me while I was in Europe. I gained so much-new expereinces, new knowledge both bibilically and just in life, new understanding and appreciation for old things, new culture and an appreciation for my own,new faces and friends (Who I still treasure dearly).
THere is so much knowledge out there waiting to grasped and learned. I wonder where those girls will be a few years down the road. Will they settle for the life they have here in Altona, Manitoba, or even Canada? Or will the do something phenomenal in todays world? Find a cure? solve the issue of world hunger? Or even things that appear to have smaller effects, but are just as important-help improve the local community, change someones life, say the right thing that needs to be said? I think of the people who have affect my life (waaaaaaaaaay to many to name but I hope you know who you are!) and I dont know where I would be without their love and support.
I wonder where life will take me in a few years. Where will I end up? What will I be doing? I of course, have my hopes and dreams, but again those are mine, not God's. My job is to listen and Obey him.

So thats just a little thought for the day/evening-Take it for what its worth.
It made me pause in my tracks and think

Life

So I realize its been a while since I have updated this as well! Part of that reason being is that I took have joined Facebook, reason being to keep in contact with friends from Holsby easier! But I know that is not an excuse, I just havent thought about updating this blog, so today I will bit. Life is back to what it was before I left. I started work last week monday and its pretty much the same. Slow, but steady at least. plus only one more week and then its long weekend which is good! Camping fun! Anyways. I have almost been home for a month and its crazy! Its good to be home, but I still miss the people and Europe in general. It is such a big wide world out there! This weekend I attend the first, of which i Hope lots of, wedding shower for a friend. Kind of weird that she will be married at the end of the summer ,and so young! But I guess that is apart of life. I am happy for them , really i am, But at the same time the world is so huge! Embrace it! Live it! enjoy it! I am just glad I got a small taste of traveling on my own, meet new people and all! I guess it depends on what you want! Anways COngrates goes off to them!
So that is just a short update! take care and explore even where you are now!
