in thinking about life and the way things are going, i've decided that it must be time for the continuation of the two big lessons of life. be humble, be patient. be humble, be patient. and having faith goes along with those two. it seems that no matter how i plan the way i think life should be, it turns out very differently. that's not a bad thing. i've realized that my perspective of life is so completely limited most of the time, so it's good that someone who knows a heck of lot more than me is in control. it does get frustrating when i don't understand where i'm going or even why i'm on the road, but in the end it always turns out better than i expected. so, be humble. i know i don't know everything so i shouldn't wonder why things aren't happening they way i thought. be patient. again, i don't know everything, so i shouldn't expect things to happen when i want them to. i know, this isn't anything new, but it's apparantly easy to forget. both of these lessons require faith. faith to trust and have confidence in someone else, someone who knows what he's doing. it's a beautiful thing! hard to learn, but beautiful.
ps. i found this amazing shot on flickr. i hope they don't mind me stealing it... :)
