Party Time!

     This week has been nothing but fun! I like it that way. I've gotten to see some of the people I love, and just hang out and laugh with them. I went to a Circa Survive concert thursday night. And that was a blast! Their talent and perfection blew me away. But, it still wasn't good enough to be in my top shows. But that's alright with me! Yesterday I got to celebrate my adorable nephew's second birthday with my family and some of his friends (pictures below). Then we went to church last night. We had a guest speaker, which was kinda weird, but he did a good job. He spoke about how we're supposed to be free men who free men. Meaning, we've been set free by Christ and now it is our job, our honor to get to free others. 
     There isn't much else going on in my life. Just good things. Maybe that will change, maybe it won't. But I will say that since my life has been slow I've been able to get on the wagon with some of my friends and match their speed to help them where they are. So, maybe it's a good thing.

Life will always move on.

     Suppose you're just having "one of those days". Maybe it's today. My whole week was kind of like that. But if there is one thing I learned from it, I learned that that's okay. We're supposed to have those days. We're supposed to be reminded of how great the days that aren't like that truly are. My week went by really slow, work felt extra long every day. So, by the time my weekend had arrived I was really wanting to just get out. And I did! i went and played soccer with one of my besties. Then got to play drums at church Saturday and Sunday, and of course played soccer. I'm hoping that my week will just get better. Even though I'm dead tired, doesn't mean i can't have fun!
     This thursday I'm going out to Lawrence to see one of my favourite bands, Circa Survive! So there really is no way my week is going to be worse than last week, even though last week wasn't dreadful. Although, last week I did learn that I am extremely clumsy when I am running on not enough sleep. In one evening (really in about a two-hour span) I spilled three drinks. One of them was unto my poor friends lap. Which to be perfectly honest, was really funny. one was a soda that overflowed on the floor. And the third time I knocked a water bottle over on my friends table. So I learned my lesson to not drink anything when I'm tired.
     I will end this post with a paragraph from the book I am writing. The book is really more of a book of questions I have asked myself, and the answer I found. So it won't ever really be done.

"The uncertainty of life in the Christ- something we need to learn to enjoy. Life never has, nor will it ever happen the way we want it to. I feel like God lets us make plans because he has a sense of humor. He did create it in the first place. The simple question, "What's your decision?" is something we overlook all too often. For in the body of Christ, should we really be making our own decisions? Better yet, do we ever make our own decisions? God came before all things and planned everything out. He knows how many strands of hair are on our head. Don't you think He would have known and put deep thought into your every decision?"

This picture perfectly describes how i felt all week.

Like a Velociraptor.

Many things, and nothings.

     After a long weekend this last week, this week was also long. Who would've thunk it? This past weekend was awesome! I went to the fall festival with super fun people! Then saturday I went to Oklahoma Joe's, got some BBQ then went to my best friends show at the KC Pumpkin patch. After that I went with her and her little brother to a Hoe-Down! Which was super fun! Then we watched Lord Of The Rings, which tops off the day. Sunday I had my soccer game which always leaves me in a better mood then before. But my week kinda ruined that for me. I was all excited to hang out with people and do stuff this weekend (which made my week go by really slow) and all my plans fell through. So, I'll be bored. Which if you know me I HATE!

     This whole situation has really got me thinking. What do I want? Not like what I want to do, but what i want besides that... And I don't really know what it is. I know that I want to raise a family, and do the very best I can to be a Godly father. I also want to be a soccer player. It really is the love of my life right now, and seems to always be. But the real question I've faced myself with is, where does God want me right now? And I haven't completely answered it. Nor will I ever. But God wants me wherever I can love people. He wants me to be real, and open, honest, and true to His teachings.

     Here are some of the people that I was with at the fall fest! If I did something I should've done differently with the photos, let me know! I'm new to this!
