What were you made to do?

What a loaded question! Trying to find the answer to this question is what it is all about, I mean to have a fulfilling life that is. Is life about the mark I leave on this world? I mean, really? Is it about doing all of those things you always dreamed of but were afraid? Or maybe, making loads and loads of money? I don't really know..if I had to guess, I would say it is different for each person. If I live a long life and am old and gray..or bleached blonde..lol..I think for me it will be how well did I love others? I want to spur others on to be more than they believe they can be, to be the more that God intended them to be. I believe that each of us is given a deep love, talent and longing to do a few things and do them well (like Rock Star well!) What will our life be like if we don't take the plunge, jump in and risk everything for what we love? That would SUCK! I don't want that type of life..a mediocre life. I want it all! After a few generations when I am dead and gone, no one is going to remember my name or what I did or didn't do. Only God and I will know and that is really all that matters. Let's live like crazy. Let's live like we only have one life to live..oh yeah..that is all we have to live. ONE!! Don't have any regrets..or would of, could of, should of's! Risk it ALL..Jesus did! (I love you MK)

Cindy,

You are bold lately, powerful, and gentle. You inspire us to do likewise ... watch out!

Thank you for letting God use you to inspire us. You are amazingly smart, cool, and salty!

I love you too, Cindy! I do agree with everything you said, at least in my heart I do. I want to just do it, just follow my dreams. I feel paralyzed though, and I'm full of self-doubt. I do appreciate your goading; God speaks to me through the things you say. Pray for me as I need courage. I liken myself to Thomas. He needed to see things first. I feel that way too. I need to submit my book and see how it goes before quitting my day job. Afterall, most writers don't make a living from their writing, unless you're JK Rowling, John Grisham, or Stephen King!

G'night, friend.
