It is difficult to be human, bound to a single place and a single time, when you wish to be in many places at once and to have all the time you want in which to be there.
I like working with my church youth group. I feel I should be working with my church youth group. And there is the (selfish?) side of me that enjoys being enjoyed, that enjoys the sort of popularity of youth leadership.
I also like my friends, and many of them gather in groups on Sunday nights when college group isn't meeting.
*sigh*
I am human. Now I am bound even as I am torn. Someday I won't have to choose from the things I love--they will all be in one place, with one purpose.
The tricky bit is finding the way to live in the meanwhile.
This comment has nothing to do with your post. Sorry. I just wanted to say, it has been cool seeing you around the blogosphere. I feel like we're hanging out although we aren't really. anyhoo.
ReplyDeleteyou know, I guess we could just pony up the electrons, and actually email each other.
