Ok, here we go. The idea is that when we're young, we have our lives all mapped out. When I was 15 I just knew that I was going to go to college, graduate and start working. I was going to meet someone who was going to sweep me off my feet and we would get married in a beautiful outdoor ceremony. We'd wait a few years and then start having perfect little children. Now, 10 years later I see that life never goes according to plan. In fact, I find that it usually (at least for me) goes completely opposite of what is planned. That is when we exercise faith. We all have a mental image of what life should be. Mine is encapsulated by the thought of a clean blue house surrounded by a white picket fence. But most of us are dealing with life as it really is. So for all of you interested, welcome to my world that I live in, one day at a time.
