Gloomy Days

So far, summer break has not been what I have been expecting coming off one of the most grueling exam weeks I ever had in my college years. For starters, the word "summer" has not applied within the weather here in Toledo for the past few weeks now. It has been wet, dark, and mucky instead of the sunshiny days that I envisioned when I left my apartment and came home.

I'm just praying that the weather gets better for the rest of the summer since I actually want to spend a lot of my time outdoors without the weird weather inhibiting me. So that means more bonfires, playing some ball at the park, and drinking around with friends.

The funny thing is, I won't even be around to see the weather get gradually better (or worse) for the upcoming 3 weeks, since I will be in Korea with the family. So maybe I shouldn't say anything in regards to the weather at all...Sorry Ohio/Michigan people.

I don't know if it is just me and a combination of the bad weather, but I find myself struggling with some old habits and things from the past as I stay inside the house more. Many things that involve the internet where I literally just do anything on here with too many hours than I care to admit. It's a bit sad that it has come to this since I thought I was doing pretty well back when I was at my apartment with zero internet and spending those extra time walking and listening for God. I'm thinking I need that same mindset that allows me to walk with God a lot more clearly than I ever had before. So basically, cutting down on my internet consumption and staying outside more despite the dark weather. 

Hopefully my mind can get out of this funk and start focusing on things that really matter. I wish I had a cool Bible verse to post here, but I've been reading the book of Acts lately, and there hasn't been any inspiring verses other than tales of how the first church grew (which is absolutely fascinating). :/

Stay focused friends.
