I guess this is my second attempt to write a little bit about my thoughts.  I'm not much of a writer, but that's okay.  The people reading this probably know me and want to know a little about what I'm thinking, so it's alright.
It's a beautiful Sunday evening, and I have had some time to sit and contemplate the reason we have a Sabbath, and the reason that we're on this earth, something I haven't had for some time.
I'm really glad that I'm here, and that I am the person I am.  My life is not what I thought it would be.  I guess though that God had a plan for me.  I don't think I would be nearly as happy as I am right now if all the plans that I had laid when I was younger had turned out.  I wouldn't be the person that I am if misfortunes that have happened never happened.  I am so much better for the things that I have gone through.
I know it's that way with everyone though.  God really does have a plan for everyone, and I'm very convinced that his plan is always different than the plans we make for ourselves.  He sets out lives on the course that he knows is the best for us.  In the end though, it's really our choice if we'll allow the winds of life to bring us to where we're supposed to go.
I guess this isn't much, but it's my thoughts.  Life is beautiful, but only if we slow down and enjoy the ride.
