Graduation Speech from Eclipse

 

 

I love the graduation speech from the movie Eclipse:

 

“When we were five, they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our things were answers like astronaut, president, or in my case, princess… When we were ten, they asked us again. We answered - rock star, cowboy, or in my case, gold medalist… But now that we’ve grown up, they want a more serious answer. Well, how about this… Who the hell knows? This isn’t a time to make hard and fast decisions. This is the time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere, chill. Fall in love - a lot. Major in philosophy because there’s no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind. Then change it again because nothing is permanent. So make as many mistakes as you can. That way, someday, when they ask again what we want to be… We won’t have to guess. We’ll know.”

early morning coffee time rabbit trails…

 

 

 

1.  LETTING GOD TAKE CONTROL -- http://www.crosswalk.com/homeschool/11547703/“Sit down. Take a deep breath. Grab a cup of coffee, tea, or whatever other caffeinated beverage you enjoy drinking. You're going to feel better after reading this article--if not from the information you glean, certainly from the charge you'll get from the caffeine!”

2.  Proverbs 16:9 tells us that plans are in the hearts of men, but the Lord determines our steps. I had to realize that God knows where I'm going, and although His plan may not be easy, it is divine and intended for my good. (a quote from the above article)

3.  Colossians 3:15 "Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful."

4.  Christ centered community - http://eric-carpenter.blogspot.com/2010/11/biblical-community.html

5.  Why should I believe the Bible? 

 

Morning coffee time is over… time to get going.  TTFN
