my hopes and dreams

It hit me today when I came home from work that I have nothing to look forward to. That sounds more depressing than I mean for it to. I mean that usually during the summer I'm always working as like, something to pass the time until school starts. But now, I'm working to pass the time until...what...? Each day that passes I think, shouldn't I be doing something more meaningful? I let every day get away. Granted, the stuff I'm doing at work really is important to the company and I'm really blessed to work in a place that truly appreciates every thing I do. But I can't help but want more.

I want to live in another country
I want to work with people
I want to live in a farm house
I want a job that makes use of my math degree
I want to go to a church where there are people my own age
I want to knit for a living
I want to live in a city
I want to live on a farm
I want to play my guitar in a park in a city
I want to play my guitar in a field overlooking a huge mountain range



I want to serve.

I hope to acheive all these things in my lifetime. I like change, but only if I've got people with me.
Now that I've said that, I'll probably be alone for awhile.


Thus is life

    I have always wanted to play music on top of a mountain. Can we fulfill our dreams together this summer??? I'll bring my violin and you bring your guitar. I LOVE YOU!!!!
