As many of us in this generation, I find my job-hunts fruitless
and the responsibility to grow up daunting.
"Maybe I'm not so great or useful after all."
It's easy to think like this, but fortunately,
I usually take the hard way.
The job hunt continues. And I reject idleness. Ironically,
I complained for a year about how I didn't have time to do the things that I loved.
The good Lord must have given me the time that I wanted-
to show me that neither of those situations are good for me...
I can't survive on work and money,
but I can't live for pure creativity, either.
I need a good mix of brute work and creative outlets.
I guess at some point everyone comes to this wisdom
and now's my time.
Until I find work, I've made some goals for myself.
I'll expose them to you all
to keep myself accountable.
The final results may vary, but I've decided
that as long as I attempt to do them,
it's good.
Lisa's To Do List:
-Write and record at least 3 songs.
-Prepare a manuscript of poetry.
-Submit said manuscript and attempt to get something published.
-Start and finish a painting.
-Redesign my brother's room.
-Make a book.
-Go hiking.
-Go canoeing.
-Join or start a Bible study.
-Get a band together and play my music at a live show.
-Read 5 more books and blog about them.
These aren't in necessarily any particular order,
and I might add a few things a long the way,
but I'll keep y'all updated on how they go.
If you have any encouragement or advice,
I'm all ears.
Wish me luck!
