Plans?

Just had some random thoughts today... it's funny to me how life turns out so different than you plan. I remember as a senior in high school how I thought about wanting to get married but how I'd never get married before I was twenty five because I wanted to know who I was before I decided to spend my whole life with one person.

Those thoughts are insane to me now! Why was I thinking of marriage in high school? And I'm twenty seven and even though I obviously do not have someone I want to marry, marriage is not something I see myself entering into anytime soon. I know some really great couples that got married right out of college or even younger and then I know others who are already divorced. Different people are meant to do different things and I'm so thankful I didn't subject myself to the pressures of getting married right out of college. I would've married the wrong person! I moved to Memphis only to find that my prince charming wanted me to be everything that I wasn't.

What's even crazier is I'm twenty seven and I know the things I look for... but do I really know what will work? Nope no idea. Haha. The more people I meet the more I realize what I want and don't want and it's a really exciting adventure!

As a freshman in college I thought I wanted to be a psychology major. Then I hated basic psychology. lol. So I tried all different types of classes and figured out that the major I wanted to do wasn't available at the college I was attending. So I transferred and found my calling to fashion major only to land myself as a manager in retail which is not at all what I expected. I wanted to live in a big city and be a buyer at a corporate office. Now I just want my own little amazing boutique.

I've realized that I'm a person who likes not knowing what will happen. I like making last minute crazy decisions and moving around when things get uncomfortable or even boring. I like adventure, not sky diving type of adventure but the uncertainty of what the future holds and the potential it has!

So I figure when I make plans and decide what I want, God probably laughs :) I change and grow every year and I'm still trying to figure it all out.

This seems appropriate! "For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."- Jeremiah 29:11
