Things I think about.

For the past six months I have been thinking a lot about Mary, the Mother of God. She was such a strong woman. I don't know if I could say yes if I was asked to give birth to the Son of God. Heck, I don't even know if I would believe what I saw/heard. I might just go ahead and think I am crazy. But, she can inspire us in our everyday lives. I can try to say yes to whatever God may ask of me. It might not be to care for His Son, but I am sure it is important if He would ask it of me.

It's finals time..

and I am not to sure how I can do this twice a year for four plus years. So, I am sitting here avoiding writing my theology essay and studying for calc 2. I really am just ready to cry.

I'm starting to worry about Cortina...

If I don't get in, I don't think I will have a roommate.

What a week it's been...

and yet still another to finals! Everything has been so hectic, and it really doesn't look like it is getting any better. But, for my theology class we are reading this book called The Way to Love by Antony de Mello. I really am enjoying the book. He talks about how you must rid yourself of attachments before you can be truly happy. Notice, you do not have to get rid of the people in your life or those things you enjoy, just the attachment to the person or object. You must recognize and say to yourself that you will be happy without this person or object. Even after a loved one dies and you miss them terribly, you do go on with your life. You continue to love and be the person you are. Your happiness did not rely solely on that person. I like that.
