kitty

i hate when people say "listen to your heart" because the rest of my life my mom has told me, "there are things you don't want to do that you have to do." so i've trained myself to enjoy whatever I am doing. which is good, I guess, until I have no idea what I really like doing. Do I want to take classes this summer? yes and no. do i really want to go to scotland next year? mostly yes, but some no.

life is not a competition of reasonings. life is following after jesus. maybe i'm too overwhelmed by all the stuff that keeps coming up. there's so much to do and i feel unproductive. but now i'm going to bed.

it's like the me going to france thing. of course i want to go. it will be an amazing experience, i'll be at least very proficient by the time i come back, i've always wanted to live in paris, i know i'll have such an amazing time, etc. but a part of me doesn't want to be away for a whole year from georgetown and my friends and this amazing place where i'm so ridiculously happy.

so i don't think it's really a question of following your heart, but rather simply a decision you have to make.
