Twenty-Somethings

I am almost 25. Hol-eee-crap. It is kinda scary...

I talked with Mike last night. He asked me questions like "what is your vision for your life", "what are your dreams". I had no real responses, because I don't know. Mike related to that. He's been there too. Mike said he remembers at one point in his 20s feeling like he had no clue what the future held for him. After he began in ministry and he began the struggle to find passion and purpose he recalls feeling unsatisfied and lost. "Is this ever going to end?" his emotions would say. I can relate to that.

My life has been college for 4 years then working for over 2. My parents gracefully pushed me into independence and life smacked me in the face. I can no longer afford to be irresponsible and now that I have the responsibility I finally have to decide for myself. What do I want?

Being twenty-something. Oh the decisions. Oh the responsibilities. Yet the opportunities. The world is at our fingertips and we have no clue what to do.
