You get one life....that's it.....you're young once, that's it....I'm seriously worried that someday I'll wake up and realize I've wasted it...what do I do?
Hard question. The normal answer is "seize the day" but a lot of the things our society calls "seizing the day" are rubbish and will leave you emptier the more you glut your life with meaningless stuff to chase after. But I imagine you already know that whole line of thought and that's why you've asked your question. What I suggest instead is finding a goal. I'm a firm believer in DELAYED GRATIFICATION. Get alone with God, agree on a goal to work toward in His service, and then act, but don't be afraid to wait on the Lord as well... I sometimes feel like I'm being a total waste because I don't have a job, but I AM working toward that goal, so even though I feel helpless and useless right now, I'm actually not. 's that help any? ->love&prayers
