God Only Knows

It's odd how things change in life. I was in my car today thinking about how just a year ago I would have never seen myself here at Baylor. I guess old Mr. Franklin had it right when he said, "The only things that are certain in this life are death and taxes." Just when I think I have my life figured out, the circumstances change.
I've learned not to hate change or fear it; In fact, I've even learned to appreciate the fact that life changes and that I have the ability to try and be an active part of that change, but it's still a little disconcerting. I remember a time not so long ago when I was so sure of my future. In a way I miss the security of that life. It was predictable; it was routine; it was calming. Sometimes I still get a little scared when I think of the future just because I have absolutely no idea where it will take me. At least now I know that even when something seems certain, good or bad, life has the ability to change it, and to an extent so do I.
I'm still learning, still reaching out for some certainty. God only knows where I'll end up. But at least I know that even if the only thing I find to be constant in life is change, I'll be ok.
