It's a bad sign when Alinna blogs more than I do! =)

Ok, O, I'll try to be better about it. Sometimes, i feel that blogging is just an outlet for me, but then I realize this is the only way that O has any idea what is going on in my life...anyhow..I'm babbling.

It's a really lonely day today. None of my close coworkers are here. It's just me all by my lonesome. It's very quiet which is nice.

So..work has been...interesting. I've been here for going on 2 years now. We moved offices last week. Everyone was hoping that it was going to be a welcome change. But alas, we moved into an identical building that runs parallel to the old building. My cubicle is in the same relative spot. So, in the end, I often forget that we've moved.

Again, digressing, having a hard time focusing today.

So, I've really started to forge friendships here at work. A bunch of us are starting to go out to lunch or drinks after work with relative frequency. It's weird, I spend the majority of my day with my coworker S. We have adjacent cubes (that don't have walls on one side) that open into one another. So, we have very little privacy. We have had some pretty severe personality clashes, but I've started to really see how God has been molding our frienship. She's not much older than I am, so that has allowed for a lot of chatting and hanging out. We've started to talk more about politics and religion. I think we've even come to look forward to talking to each other about personal stuff.

I've been really challenged by Alinna to really love S. just in the way Al is so intentional about loving those in her life that a difficult to love. I've been really encouraged to pray more for my coworkers, especially as I start to hang out with them more.

I walked away to go get some water, now I've lost my train of thought.

I'm just going through one of those "ugh, I don't like being a young adult" phases. It's okay. I will not wallow.

blah blah blah...who wants to listen to me blab anyways.

Hmm..so how do you find vision/purpose when you feel a bit directionless? You pray. But what do you do in the meantime? (not career-wise, but just passion-wise, ministry, etc.)
