I fell asleep on the couch immediately after dinner today and it was a glorious nap that I thought would take me through the nap...but unfortunately I woke up and here I am...
trying to sort my life out for next year. I just want to do too many things. I want to be too many things.
at passion 2010 andy stanley suggested that we all practice writing our obituaries and imagine the types of things we would like for people to have said about our existence here on earth. He claimed that doing so would help us all grasp an understanding of what qualities and personalities traits are of the most importance to us. after knowing these perhaps other things wouldn't quite seem so important.
I think he's got to absolutely true and onto something.
for example... I will never care if people comment that changed my toe nail polish to make sure it never clashes with a sundress, that i own really cute notebooks, that I vacuum probably twice a week, that I was always up to date on the latest episode of the real housewives ( I've seriously got to stop watching that) and etc.
I mean these are horrible examples of silly things that are important to me...but I mean...I don't exactly want to openly embarrass myself on my own blog but we all know that we all have things that we're attached to and care a lot about that are so trivial.
So, perhaps tomorrow I'll be writing my obituary. I'll be imagining the types of things I'd like for all of you to say about me after passing away. I hope I'm not sounding morbid. but I think this will help me become a better person and to become more committed to others.
