looking at things from an intentional perspective...
i think i've written about this before. i've certainly thought about it a lot. i've come to several points in my life recently in which i've realized that my life often completely lacks intention. i move along passively, allowing things to happen to me. i am not proactive towards much. reasons are mainly because i am scared. scared of failure, scared of rejection, scared of everything falling apart.
i have been trying to focus my life towards being intentional. i intend to pursue and invest in relationships. i intend to do well in school, so i work hard, invest financially, and strive for my best in every effort.
i intend to know Jesus more intimately. I read the Word, i pray, i seek Him...i am intentional about pursuing Him.
lack of intention precedes me, and itches its way in to my everyday life. I want to be intentional in all things.
I am making a list...a long list, full of dreams, full of ridiculous ideas, full of fun, full of "other's" thinking, full of friendship growth, full of hope, just packed full!
here's a chunk, that i hope to accomplish...sooner rather than later!
