A Season of Change

Tuesday, May 4th, In the year of our Lord 2010

My House, Caronport Saskatchewan

Anticipating Scott's Stag, 5:40 PM

Rainy, Windy, Cold

It is the season of change.

I am of a disposition that is disturbed by change. Perhaps a disturbance is a good thing though, it prevents stagnation. My house-mate is getting married on Saturday. I am very happy for both of them. Scott will be moving out this week, taking all of his stuff (which is most of the stuff in the house) with him. He goes to live with a different house-mate now, and I don't blame him. She looks a lot nicer than I do, probably smells nicer too. I'm sure their new life together will be a bed of roses... pedals, thorns, and all. I am anticipating times when I will not envy their situation in life and can quietly snicker at a safe distance. I am truly happy for them though.

My lot for the summer is cloudy and unseen. There are a lot of unknowns that I will face. Thankfully a place to live and a place to work are not one of those unknowns. I plan to resolutely prepare for my next mod in September, accomplish meaningful goals at work, and attempt to break out of my social shell. Maybe this year I will succeed.

I suppose I should think of something witty to amuse my yet to make an appearance readers with, but I am not quite sure what else to say.

One of the things that has inspired me is Eric's blog. It's just a random scattering of impressions, thoughts, stories, and opinions, but I find it insightful, intelligent, even funny. Perhaps it is more meaningful because I know the author. There are so many students that aspire to be like Eric... little do they know that his life is mostly normal just like theirs. Or at least that's what he wants us to believe. Secretly, he is an uber super zombie slaying ninja who can steal the weather. Yeah, that's right Eric, if you're reading this, I know it's true.

But yes, a season of change is upon me. What else can I do except praise God even when the darkness closes in and their is pain in my heart. We will face this new challenge boldly, confidently, with expectancy that God is at work.

Greg out.
