Plans.//

'Want to make God laugh?'

'Make plans.'

We have all heard the saying,

but how many of us actually consider how accurate it is?

I make plans constantly,

I play out exactly how it needs to go

for me to get from point A to point B.

I do it daily, almost obsessively;

trying to control every little bit of my life...

wanting to make it all happen myself.

I think the most humorous thing is when

I've played out how its going to be,

and then when I arrive at that specific place in time

it isn't at ALL how I thought it would go.

The truth is:

no matter how hard I try to control my life,

my seasons,

my adventures,

my career....

I can only put my 100% into it,

my heart,

my soul,

my passions.

Beyond that,

God is the one who is leading and guiding,

and directing the life I live and the seasons I find myself in.

I really need to work on not

creating these grand ideas on how everything should go.

I think it would go well with my soul to simply enjoy the adventure

and trust in the beauty of the journey I find myself on 

and will come to find myself on.

peace. love. joy.
