Life (Take 1)

Life- get up, take a shower, drive to school or work, eating on the way; always listening to music. My life is mundane. I am always thinking about work, school, music, church, or chilling out. Life never seems to vary; it stays the same. Why then do I enjoy this life that I love so much? I always wear about the same things, always eat about the same things, and always do the same things. What is it about this constant daily cycle?
I love a set life because it is routine, it is safe, I know what I am doing. Why should I do something unusual when I can have fun right here? I do sporadic things every once and a while. Kayaking, camping, going to the beach, though they are sporadic they are not very risky. There is no danger involved; I have nothing to lose. I think I will start today off willing to take more risks and be more adventurous.

i think you have become the definition of adventure. leaving florida in a few months (to leave ME all by myself w/o anyone who gets our senses of humor!), but nonetheless to go get formal training in ministering to youth! every day is an opportunity to take a risk. don't get down on yourself cuz you haven't "been adventurous or daring," rather just keep an open eye to the opportunities before you. =) love ya brotha from anotha motha of a different color!
