I give in. I still think that if it was shot in color it should stay color, but sometimes I just can't decide. In this case, I think monochrome is better.
I am trying to reconnect with God. Though its been up and down, I have made a lot of progess. However, I still have a long way to go. On top of that, I feel like i have been going through the hardest of times. I lost my girlfriend. I don't have a job. I got my car towed which cost 200 dollars. To add to the expenses my roommate moved out, leaving Eric and I to find a roommate. I thought to myself at least i have my health. Well, now i am experiencing back discomfort which is forcing me to be less physically active.
Thank God for the story of Job. It encourages me very much. I know that I am not perfect and things aren't going the way I want them to be. However, I truly hope that I can make a testimony out of these hard times that I am going through. Yes, I know they could be worse and people have gone through worse, but this is my experience, one that I can understand.
At the same time, it is wise to consider my potential and what I do have. I have the simple things. Maybe it is appropriate that the hard times are during Thanksgiving time and Christmas, for they are reminders of what really is important and who really cares.
I was thinking about what I want in life. Alot of times my answer was, "I want to be happy." This still holds true. I aspire to live a simple life with the people that I love.
My friend visited me yesterday and he is still sleeping at 11:20. Its driving me crazy cause I want to be as loud as I want. Wake up bro!
I have a horrible memory. I always forget where I put my wallet and keys. Even with my best friends, I can hardly remember the handshakes we made. And i have known these guys since high school. I suck at remembering things. Even while I was with Shirley, I had trouble remembering the things we did.
But now that we aren't together I have been having the most vivid flashbacks. I am actually impressed with how much I remember. I can even fill in the parts I can't remember, which usually turn out to be correct. I wonder why my mind does this. Its not like I want to remember these things while I am trying to focus. I don't want to forget either. I just wish my brain would stop flashing pictures in my head while im trying to get things done.

So I thought this was interesting. Haha. I AM A MAN!
I am only as grown up as I think I am. I need to realize that there is always room for growth no matter how old/young I am. If I limit myself I will never grow.
