Its the time of the year.

I've been thinking about TONS of different things since we got back and one of my biggest concerns has been: ORGANIZATION!!!

We all know the often quoted:
" To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under the heaven, etc..." Eccle. 3:1

But I'd never really paid attention to the verses that follow:
" What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?"
Eccle. 3:9
My personal interpretation: What is it that I spend most of my time and energy to? And how do I profit from it?

I kept on reading and found the answer:
"I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice and to do good in his life"
Eccle. 3:9

I might as well have banged my head on a fat billboard saying:
BE HAPPY in and with what you do.

This ties in well with the message/morale of Night at the Museum II which we watched last night: "The key to happiness is doing what you love".

So this constitutes the basis of my goals this year. I would like to introduce you to Mr. 2010:



In case it is not self explanatory: Lets go from the top down.
1- Get A's, hopefully all of them but most of all: enjoy them. I survived the first week.
Let's see how the rest of the semester goes.

2- Keep my eyes on the Lord and his kingdom.

3- Keep on smiling aka Stay happy and remember not to sweat the small stuff

4- $. Its actually a $ crossed twice as is: DO NOT WASTE $. But most of all, be wiser in money making decisions.(Marcus loved that one ;))

So here it is: To a better year to all of you. May you get to accomplish your dreams, or at the very least get a little closer. Remember "TO REJOICE" and "TO DO GOOD".
