reelin' in the years

so here i am, in the computer lab working on a presentation for 8am and even though i could wish i were someplace else at this moment and someplace else altogether, i don't. whether i'm going through trials or just trudging through the mundane, i'd so like to be where paul was when he said "I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances." (Phil. 4:11-12)

maybe i haven't fully learned the lesson of contentedness, but i have learned that it is something i must re-learn- on a regular basis.

so just a few more days of classes here at bryan, a couple finals, and i'm home free until my final semester.
graduation in december is not a tragedy. nor is missing the senior cruise because my dr. forbade it. there is a wonderful feeling of peace and, actually, contentedness, that i can't explain with my own honorable intentions. i am thankful for that and the fact that i have been spared the bad attitude i expected from my self and have found that He can give me much more instead.

off to persevere through this mad, mad week...

ps- anyone who recognizes the reference i made in the title of this post wins major points...
