Back!
It's been 7 months since I last blogged, but I've decided to come back to blogging, because I find, it actually helps slow the frantic pace of life down, just enough for me to collect my thoughts and really reflect.
I guess, I'll start by talking about the MIE 415 design project. The past 5 days, I have spent approximately 70-80 hours in the computer lab, working franticly at our group report which was due yesterday. After finally handing in our project, several of us were just chilling outside MC building. It was a beautiful day, and was around 4pm, and I was just lying there on that stone block column thing people sit on outside MC and I was just looking at the sky, and for once in a very long time, I realized what a beatiful world we live in that God has created. If you haven't been outside enjoying the great weather that we have been blessed with the last couple days, DO IT NOW!
Second thing, I think I'm gonna blog about is relationships, most specifically dating. Just a bit of a background about me: I am 20 years old now, and I have never involved myself in a relationship or dated or anything. I'm as single as the number one. Why? Simply because it is not time yet. God has planned my life in advance, and I do believe that if He wants to me to be in a relationship with that someone, then it will happen. Secondly, I believe that I am still in the process of maturing my thoughts and views on relationships. It goes against common beliefs, but relationships really aren't about what I can get out of it, but rather, what can I put into it. The next best thing to being loved, is to love. I admit, there is still a long road of maturing ahead, but it's definately worth it for me.
Finally, a bit of thought on humility. I think people sometimes have the wrong idea of humility. It isn't about being polite. It isn't about saying, no I'm not really that smart, when someone compliments you on a test. It isn't about words, but rather, your entire self has to have it. And because of that, it results in an outflowing of a selfless humble character whose actions reflect such a person. I admit, I myself haven't been completely humble; I have always been taught to be proud of what I have accomplished, for example such as music. It's not responding like "oh, no i'm not that good at ___" but rather thanking someone when you are complimented, and realizing that it is not your talents, but something you have been blessed and gifted with by God.
