I don't know if I'm in the right frame of mind to answer this right now, but I'll have a crack at it anyway. I reserve the right to come back here several times and write completely contradictory things, OK?!
I think what matters more than anything else is relationships - with other people, but especially with God. Because that's what I believe I was created for.
I'd like to see as much of God's beautiful creation as I can.
I'd like to celebrate as much of what people create as I possibly can. There's nothing wrong with watching lots of TV so long as it's GOOD and something I can look at and say "wow it's fantastic that a whole lot of people put their time and creativity and effort into creating that, wasn't it great".
I need to socialise more often! Sometimes even on the internet...
I need to do the things God wants me to do while I'm here on earth. Even though I believe death isn't the end, it's not like I'm supposed to just sit around marking time. Eternal life starts now, not when I die.
Yet at the same time, the fact that death is NOT the end means I'm not going to miss out on anything important. Everything that really matters is still going to be around long after I've died. Eg "when we've been there 10,000 years bright shining as the sun, we've no less days to sing God's praise than we first begun (Amazing Grace - possibly with slight inaccuracies!)
That's my FIRST crack at answering, anway...

I want to leave behind a piece of art to the world. Something that'll touch someone, make them discover... something. Pretty diffuse, i know. But i think i'm on my way, though it may not seem like it. Maybe that's why i feel restless, want to travel, move around, see new things and this feeling of longing after a peaceful place where i want to stay, at the same time. Maybe i'm restless while i'm serching for peacefullness.

sweetsangria~ I like your sig quote. Robert Frost is exceptional, no?  As for the life question: I usually just try to make it through one day at a time. I think I need to change my thinking pretty soon. |
