Y'all got pretty lucky there, didja know that? I don't often feel like that and even less often do I display feeling gloomy like that. I don't think the actual post is quite as gloomy as I was. If you ever feel like life's going by too fast and there's nothing you can do about it, smother it with a good dose of Ecclesiastes (meaning read the whole book in one sitting, or at least the first 3 chapters) and Matthew 6:20something-to-the-end and Romans 8:28. It's kind of oxymoronic that when you most feel like it's so important to enjoy life, you end up worrying about not enjoying it and that's not at all enjoyable. :-D
I find it interesting that in y'alls comments, James can't wait to be 17 and Caleb dreads turning 15. I'm sure there's some deep psychological meaning to that, but I'm sure I don't know it, unless it's that maybe Caleb really likes being 14, and is happy with how life is going, and James doesn't like being 16 and doesn't like how life's going. But how am I supposed to know!
Ok then, James, Kara and Bea are going to be seniors next year, except KnB don't really count because they're not in highschool anymore.
I think feeling like life's slipping away too fast makes it more important to make sure you're on the right track and you're not wasting time that you're going to have to go back and do over. that doesn't make sense. I guess I mean it's important to learn the lessons you're supposed to learn now and not have to go back and relearn it later.
OK, ENOUGH philosophy for the day or week or month, I will now return to realms of solid life and my normal blogging topics.
Like TOMORROW IS MY FAVORITE DAY OF THE WEEK!!!! SUNDAY, CHA CHA CHA! SUNDAY, CHA CHA CHA! SING WITH ME NOW! Youth group starts back up, I can't wait to see what everyone's up to, James and Gina are probably coming, although who knows what we're doing for Sunday School. I guess if worst comes to worst and Matt didn't get a sub (which I consider highly unlikely) we can just HANG OUT!!!
I should probably get dressed now. Or NOT. Ha!
