#004: New Beginnings.



About a week ago I moved into a new house with seven new roommates. Packing up and moving out has been a good way to try and really implement what I'm supposed to be learning during this year. I went through all my stuff and tried to only bring with me what I really need. Of course, I still have WAY too much stuff... to many clothes, shoes, scarves, knick-knacks, books, etc. But it felt good to kind of purge my life of all the excess things that I just had laying around my bedroom at home but really didn't need.

I'm trying to prioritize my life around the things that I really want to spend my time on, but it's difficult because there are so many things that I want to do. School, Bible study, small group, tutoring, working, church, babysitting, building community at home, working out, cooking, spending time with people... all of these things are important to me, but I feel like I just can't do them all! How do I simplify my life and still make a difference in the world? This is my question for the week.

  1. so true!!! It's so hard trying to choose and prioritize when you just want to do everything. but when you say yes to everything, nothing is really quality. I am definitely trying to figure out what is worthwhile and what is not, but it is sooo hard to limit so many awesome activities =(
