Mission Statement and Life

So this topic was recently brought up in my church's college class. What is a mission statement? And what does it mean to have one? One thing I have really focused on this past year is living each day with a purpose, granted it is harder than it looks. It is so easy to get caught up in the daily routine and to forget what is really important. Even things that appear to be good can become a distraction; things like work and school. So how cool would it be to have a mission statement for life? Just something that you could write down and keep in your wallet or purse. It seems a little silly to me but the more I think about it the more sense it makes. It would be so much easier to live with a purpose if that purpose was clearly written down and thought out. So...needless to say, that is my homework for the week. I am going to write myself a mission statement!

So...anyway. This is my last week of work! This summer has gone by so extremely slow but I almost can't believe it is over! I have literally been sitting in an office all summer doing...well doing nothing. So I can't really imagine what I will do with myself when I don't have to get up and go to work everyday. Hopefully I will be somewhat productive...but I doubt it. Tangent...I am a senior in college. When this thought crosses my mind all I can think of is the little boy coming home from the dentist saying, "Is this real life?". I have no idea where the time has gone. It seems like just yesterday I was a freshman in college turning eighteen and me and my friends were running around campus with birthday maracas singing happy birthday at the top of their lungs. A lot has changed since then but it still only seems like yesterday. It kinda makes me wonder how different things will be in another three years. Crazy! Well...I guess I am gonna get to bed. Work tomorrow, gonna suck...but then again I only have to do this for one more week! Goodnight all!

God bless!
