Attention all 4th yr. Seniors in College...if you think you have bad Senioritis right now...try 5 plus summer school Senioritis. Equivalent to 5 and 1/2 years of College...
So far, what have I learned? Um well all we ever do is cram before test, because every teacher seems to schedule their tests the same week as every other teacher. So um I dont remember anything from Freshmen year, Sophmore year, Junior Year, and only a small fraction of Senior Year.
But whats the point...a nicely signed piece of paper...The College Degree.
Your Ticket to Success!!! Well mine, is worthless. Because I am a Biology Major. Exercise Minor.
And I am going to do Insurance with my dad....So right now while taking Genetics, American Government, Sports and Recreation Management and Senior Biology Seminar...I am having a hard time being motivated.
And motivated turns into frenzy. Because "well what if you dont like insurance" , "you gotta have that degree" "someday you will use it" so now being so unpassionate as I am...how am I suppossed to fake passion for the future?? Frenzy fest 101. Thats a splendid class!
Been saying it for years...I hate the System. If we can't graduate and be in our fields in less than 3 years, we are wasting our money, time, and resources. Because where do you really learn? OUT THERE! DOING IT! EXPERIENCE! How do "basics" prepare me for my career? How do 4 tests?
And whats more irritatingly extravaging? Being engaged and being long distant.
I just realize there are brilliant people out there, that never have gotten the chance to go to College. Brilliant. But the System stripped them, robbed them of hope. So they have to suffer accordingly? While some Un-brilliant College Degree makes $50,000 more? I am for education, without a doubt. But I am also for Justice. What if your God-given talent doesn't require College? But your going to tell that man or woman they can't make it "out there" without a Degree? Hypocrisy of Brilliance.
But we who are Americans, privileged little things we are, we go through the System...making our life's check-list. Making sure we are right on schedule...Right on time, with where "we are supposed to be at that given age." A Soul Sickening Cycle full of stress. America's Greatest "How to Book".
Can we all just be honest for a second...don't we all want Money? All want Fame? Complain and complain (just like I am doing) all wanting our say, not realizing our luxurious bed, is our soul-less Grave?
The Great Grand Canyon isn't a huge hole in Arizona. Its right among our souls. And America loves to entertain. Entertain the fact that clothes, video games, cell phones, careers, vacations, cars, houses, and the rest of the gig will "come and fill that hole!". And aren't we all bitten by that Lie to some degree or another, even if we realize that Hole will only be filled by Jesus Christ? Ah like dogs we return to the vomit.
Like the Greatest Pawn Shop, are we so desperate for "More" we pawn off our very soul? I was looking outside today at a sprinkler, the mist of water impeding the air. Ah this is what we truly are, a vapor. A mist. Therefore, why run so aimlessly about after that which is fleeting? Why run around like a chicken without its head, in a full frenzy fest of dread? Why run like were dead?
Sin IS deception. Are we so willing to be decieved?
Life. True Life. Eternal Life. We need You more now than ever. (I know I do)
