After a ton of graduations on Saturday, and hanging out with my mom's side of the family all day today at my grandparents, I finally have a chance to relax. When we got home, my little brother wanted to have a fire in our new fire pit, so we did. After a little finishing up on my english homework (Proud of me Mrs. Helzer?) I can finally sit back in front of the TV for a while.
Yesterday, after going to play in the band at our graduation, and then attending all the graduation receptions it made me realize that I'm not that far away. That kinda stresses me out because I really have no idea what I want to do with my life. Teacher? Rancher? I want to come back to the family farm just to spite all the corporate farms there are in the world, and I enjoy working with animals, but at the same time I have a good time working with kids. I know that it is NOT easy to be a teacher, I know that teachers don't make a lot of money, even if they have high degrees, I know that families are getting harder and harder to work with, and that not all kids want to get a free education so that they can make something of themselves. I get it, but I want to make a difference in the world, and I feel that the main way of going about that is through the world's children.
I guess I'll figure it out in the next year or two, but until then all I can do is pray and ask God to direct me where he wants me.
As one of my mom's favorite verse states:
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." Proverbs 3: 5-6

I am proud of you for working on your English homework first :) Haha. Don't stress too much about not knowing what career you want to pursue. I changed my major 5 times between my 1st and 2nd year of college. And don't worry about what others say; pursue your passions.
