Day 004: Babies Look Like Old Men and Aliens

The Title: I looove babies! I'm a baby fanatic, and while at Barnes and Noble today, I saw the cutest book of photography of newborns in cutesy poses. I showed it to my co-worker who pointed out that babies look like old men and aliens. I was then sad, because after hearing that I started to notice....they sorta do look like that as newborns.

Moving Right Along:
I've officially stopped stressing about the move. In fact, I'm in a state of timelessness. I don't care what week it is. I don't care when I said I'd be gone. I just care about getting it right. I'm tired of messing up, so I need to just take my time and do things well. When I stopped worrying about that, I started to really enjoy being where I am right now. I love the grass and trees and crazy squirrels of campus. I really do enjoy my job, my co-workers, my boss. There are certain things that I'm going to miss. For once in my life, I've learned to live in the moment instead of leaping to the next stage prematurely.

I'm also getting more comfortable with the unknown. I like to keep my plans...well planned. I like to know what I'm doing. I like to be in control. Well, that's impossible. I don't really run anything. And God isn't going to tell me anything I'm not ready for. Joyce Meyers lectured about trusting God when you don't understand what's going on. It makes a lot of sense once it's brought to your attention. Why would God tell you everything that's going to happen? Then you'd have as much information as Him, and isn't He the only All-knowing being? Exactly.

Success: I think success is a journey we walk on blind-folded. We won't even know we're there until we get there. Our best bet is to believe good things are going to happen, sow the seeds, and just walk straight. We're like little naked alien babies. Oblivious to what the future holds. I kinda like the mystery of it all.
