Life is wonderful, life goes full circle

it's almost funny the way things come out of nowhere right when you are about to quit looking for them.  opportunities you had given up on come together at the last minute.  friendships you never could have imagined become exactly what you need.  right when you are about to look away from the sky you see twice as many stars.  it's almost like God's way of reminding us, this life isn't about you and your plans, your ideas, or what you think you need.  wait for me to show you.  it makes me wonder how often i get in my own way.  

life can't be predicted, and it can't even really be planned for.  so what to do?  more and more God is showing me i just need to sit back and really see the beauty around me, worship Him, love other people, and let Him take care of the rest.  it sounds so simple and easy, but it's been quite the struggle.  a constant fight not to get freaked out and feel like i am falling behind.  but honestly, behind on what? other than sleep :)
