my friend sent this photo to me and it made me laugh - mostly because it's so accurate!

thinking out loud

it's been almost two years since i touched this blog but here's an attempt to revive it again. i think since i started journaling again more regularly i've found that to be a better outlet for my private thoughts and struggles. but even though this post started out as an assignment for my writing class, maybe i'll think about coming back to it again..

i'm finding myself in a more philosophical state of mind lately - not moody or melancholy, but very often pensive, just thinking about life and doing a lot of introspection. one conversation i had recently with a friend ended with us concluding that life can be hard and it's unpredictable - a conversation more fitting for 60-year-olds than the 20-somethings we are. but as i've been trying to gain more insight into my own life and see things from a broader perspective, i think i've reached a point where i can really resonate with the author of Ecclesiastes - everything is meaningless, and purpose is found in God alone. purpose in life is where my journey with the Lord really began, and i feel like i'm starting to come full circle again.
