Howdy! Dominic Burke here, bringing you the hardest hitting
news story yet!
Just kidding.
Seriously though. Man. This week has been CRAZY. Tests have begun, and I was so busy practicing music and
getting myself super pumped up for Crunchtime this past weekend (which was SO COOL) that I definitely forgot to plan as far
ahead as I normally do for exams. Don’t get me wrong, I procrastinate, but usually I’m better at spacing out my stress. Physics and Organic Chemistry homework, plus tests in both (man oh man circuitry is weird), Statistics homework, Health notes, Lab
reports… Of course, this is on top of resolving drama between my friends, trying to figure out where in the
WORLD I’m going with my life, and my future, and—
Okay, hold up.
Yes, life is stressful. Yes, life is crazy. Yes, time can
seem to just slip on by without you even noticing until oh that's what the
sunrise looks like. But look at my week again. I spent the weekend with a group
of amazing individuals praising God with music and teaching youngsters (because
I’m so beyond high school. Psh. Yeah.) to keep the faith in college. I’ve got study partners, especially in my laboratory periods, that have
seriously been stellar. My friends, Wesley members and otherwise, have been building me up, calming me down, and keeping me going. I have
people around me that care, that are here for me in my times of trouble, just
as I'm ready to help them (even if they drive
me crazy).
“A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a
time of adversity.” Proverbs 17:17
God has brought some amazing, wondrous, astounding (one
could even say fantastic) people into my life. Today, this week, and all the
time, take a moment to appreciate
those people that make life what it is: beautiful.
