MANALIVE

You know, I'm not trying to complain... but...


Its kind of hard sometimes to see the light at the end of the tunnel.


With all the drama that has gone on in my/our life as of late, it makes me really start to wonder if there is a "good' life for me, a life not filled with apartment floodings, failures at diets, and financial strain.


A life where $ is not the focal point of my existence, a life of inner peace and joy despite the non-sense this life insists on bringing.


I really am tired of the rat race!


8 to 5 mon thru friday.


Underpaid and overworked.


I want to be me, and do me, full time!


I have accepted the fact that this probably is not going to happen, I still wish for it though!


Were we created to hate life?


Is this the curse passed down to mankind via Adam?


To have his work life suck?


Did Christ not redeem us from the curse?


Just for the record, as far as jobs go, I really like my job, good people, the work can get tough, and tedious sometimes, but overall great place to work. I am just tired of my life being consumed with manual labor and dirt, I have natural gifts and talents that I would really like to get paid for, if you would ask my boss he would agree that manual labor is not my strongest skill!!!!


I am back in school trying to learn more on graphic, and web design, hopefully that pays off!


However it turns out, I'm trying to stay positive and focused on the good things in life, and learning to learn.


ROME 8:28 says this:

28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,who have been called according to his purpose.


I really hope this is true in my life.


I want to be fully ALIVE!


Does anybody else feel my pain?
