Life

When it comes to life, I know for a fact that I'm not living what I was meant to do... Music & Cooking are passions of mine but I was put on this Earth specifically for one aspect...

I was meant to teach and/or be a missionary. Since I was in the 2nd grade, I've known what God wanted for me. I had this teacher, Mrs. Jones. Big eyes, brown skin, always a fresh perm & a fly outfit to match... She rarely talked about what we "needed", according to curriculum or what others said, and always talked about what we "should" know, according to the lives we were living. Even then, I was aware of what really is.

More often than not, we are told one thing when life has taught another. Every now and again we realize what's within us and more so often than not, we move onto the next based on what society makes us think is "real".

My thoughts: Give God all of you. Only then can you see the realness in your life. Whether it be talent, calling, or plan.

I don't think I've spent enough time living out my want to be a Chef. And as much as it makes me happy (beyond belief) to make others happy with my food, its not my need; its not my calling.

One day, your kids will come home saying "My favorite teacher ever is Ms. Jasper..." like I did with Mrs. Jones. And chances are, if I gain word about it, I'll cry like I am now. But to know that that's where I was meant to be makes life actually REAL to me...

In the end, that's all that matters. Live life accordingly :)
