How did I get here?

James Brown was right when he sang " This is a Maaaaan's world"
Mr.Brown thank you for stating the obvious but could you maybe release the re-mix track that explains the women behind these men?Serious.Gosh.

Unsaved men are so super gross to me.Seriously, like grossed out to the max. So gross. Like I think I just puked in my mouth and swallowed it gross.
Okay, that was a gross illustration I apologize. But you get the idea now right?

Anyhow, I was thinking last night after I forced myself to work out and not eat a piece chocolate....How the heck did I get here? How did I get to this point in life? I hate my job. Hate it.(venting rule applies here). I am so blesses to be employed bla bla bla I know.
I don't make a difference to anyone doing my job though;thus my hatred for the job.

then I realize that my only one constant passion has been writing. Since I was 12 years and I wrote my first short story I have loved writing. Poetry, short stories, maybe some day greeting cards........:)
Now, yes my spelling is dreadful and there is much to be said about the rest of my grammer. But last night I was thinking"self, why didn't you go to school? you could have been a writer?" I mean, have you picked up a magazine lately? Driiiiiibllllle. I should be writing dribble!

Anyhow. I am 27 so its probably not gonna happen now. Does anybody else ever look at their career and ask how they got there? Why they are there? Does anybody else ever feel like they should be doing so much more to better the lives our fellow man?

I have to be honest. Sometimes I have to pray and ask God to forgive my jealousy towards my big sis. She is part of something bigger than herself and bigger than just her abilities.

I want a job that is bigger than me and my abilities God. I want you to reach people through me. Even just one. Amen.

But sis, you know I'm the super dork right? Do I have to remind you of the nickname you and Jackie gave me when I worked at Lerner? Please. Don't make me. Shall I recount the countless times I have mooned you and our additional siblings? Hmmm. Or how about when I was super cool and wore my "Step Beyond" T-shirt with jeans and heeled shoes? Need I go on?

Auh sis, I'm tellin' ya what, I really feel like it's just on the horizon for you...something good is on the way. Well, your life is good. So something different is on the way. Gosh, think back to just 2 years ago. Wait, have you lived here for 2 years? Wow. But really. You would have never guessed you would be where you are now. And I truly believe what I told you the other day, this is all momentary. But yes, you do work with a buncha pervs. Sorry about that one...

Oh and one more thing... there is a certain chaplain I can hook you up with? I hear he has kids as well. And man can he sing... picture it: you write the songs for him. Beautiful. YES!! (hand in fist, drawn to your side, 80's style.)

Remember this... God gives us our dreams for a reason and our desires when we seek him, if you want to be a part of something bigger just keep asking and I am 100% sure you will be


Oh and the writing thing...your good at it and it's never too late so keep it up!
