deeply

it is impossible to believe how quickly this summer has gone by...
and now-as fall approaches-the usual associations keep drifting into my mind
my favorite season
of new beginnings
but this time around-it will be different.
no longer is my life scheduled by classes, no need to buy a brand new package of my favorite note-taking pens, notebooks, syllabuses

moving into my dorm, buying text books
replaced by the job search
paying off debt
reading whatever book i want in the local coffee shop
waiting for...?

a time of transition?

life is transition

so-i strive to

live the life that unfolds before me
to love goodness more than i fear evil

to breath deeply
drink deeply
hurt deeply
love deeply

to follow Him closely

to keep playing my guitar for strangers
to have conversations of Truth in the local bar or coffee shop
constantly aware

always searching
finding
struggling
seeking

worshiping.
