Quote of the Day (actually, it's a song):

When I am down, and, oh my soul, so weary
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit a while with me

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up, to more than I can be
---"You Raise Me Up" by Josh Groban

This song means a lot to me right now. Lately, I have just been in some sort of rutt. I just don't feel right. I just feel sort of lost and weary. I know it's probably just because I'm home and missing college and what not, but I just feel weird. I just feel like....lost. I know that God has a plan for me. I know that he knows who I'm gonna marry, what I'm gonna major in, what job I'm gonna get, etc. I just wish I had some clue to those answers. I've really been working on trust lately in my life. As most of you know, a lot of stuff has been going on in my life lately. Trust is the only thing I can cling to. I just know that God has a plan for me, and I know that I'm slowly kind of starting to follow that plan, I think. I know this doesn't make much sense. I really can't describe how I feel. I was talking to Sarah Blair tonight and she mentioned that she just feels like she doesn't have a life anymore. I agree. I just feel so...weird. I can't describe it. Anyway...back to the song. I love this song because it kinda explains how I feel. When I'm down and my heart is burdened, the only person I can turn to is God; the only thing I want/can do is just pray, and I know that God will work everything out, no matter what it has to do with. Whether it is with my relationships, job, school, trying to figure out a major, anything, I know that He has it all worked out. I just really wish He would let me in on the secret. ;) God raises me up to stand on mountains and he raises me up to walk on the stormy seas of life, and boy, can those seas get stormy. I'm strong through Christ (Phil. 4:13) and God DEFINITELY raises me up to more that I can be. I'd be nothing without Him, absolutely nothing. Now, I don't know if Josh Groban is singing this song to God or not, but that is how I interpret it. So, even though I have NO idea what God has planned for me in my life, I'll just keep trekking along, and He will reveal it all to me in His time.

Anyway, enough with my inspirational or whatever talk. ;) Not much is going on in my life right now. I started back at DQ this week. It's been ok so far. I've really missed the people. It's been fun being able to catch up with everyone. Some of my B-town boys (Jason P., Jason K., and Chris G.) came and visited the great town of Sullivan yesterday. They were thoroughly impressed. ;) Thanks for coming to see me, guys!!!! I hope Sullivan didn't bore you too much. :) BTW, Jason K. is in love with H****** F******!!! :) LOL! Anyway, the night was pretty fun. We had dinner at Bobe's and then came back to my place and watched Goldmember. You guys should come visit more often! Liven up Sullivan life a little bit!! :)

Well, I need to get to bed. I don't have to work tomorrow :):) so I plan on spending most of the day outside as long as it doesn't rain. Maybe go for a run/walk and wash my car. I just want to enjoy the nice weather. Maybe I'll even help my dad out with the pool and backyard! Sounds like a plan. :) Well, everyone, have a nice day/night depending on when you read this. I love you all!!!
