Purpose...

Purpose is a word that I've always been fond of.. I'll explain.  When I was in college the book Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren came huge and spread across college and church youth groups the same.  I was glad to be part of campus ministry with the Gospel Choir at Bloomsburg University where I attended college, it was through that group I was able to go through the book with a group of other Christian girls.  It was a rewarding and challenging time in my life and I wish I'd gotten through the whole book... maybe some day I'll be disciplined enough to go through it all.

Anyway, purpose... I saw many of my friends and people I once was close to lately have started blogging.  I used to blog awhile ago sometime around high school.  I enjoyed it, I blogged using http://www.xanga.com and was able to join groups and things related to what I enjoyed, it was more a blogger networking site.  When I saw so many people I knew were blogging I thought it'd be a nice time to get back into it so here we are...

Half way there

I chose this as the title because well it reminds me of life.  We're always half way to wherever we are going next, I've learned this especially since becoming a mom.  We're always only half way there, it's a weird sort of feeling but it's been my life for the past year since I gave birth to my little miracle that I call Jeremiah.  Before I close this post I'd like to share the lyrics of the song Half Way There.

When the chips are down, back against the wall
Got no more to give because we gave it all


Seems like going a distance is unrealistic
But we're too far from the start

So we take what comes and we keep on goin,
leanin on each others shoulders.
Then we turn around and see we've come so far somehow.

Were halfway there, were lookin good now.
Nothin's gunna get in the way.
Were halfway there, and lookin back now
Id never thought that id ever say, we're halfway there

If we never flew, we would never fall.
If the world was ours, we would have it all.
But the life we live isn't so simplistic, you just don't get what you want.

So we take what comes and we keep on goin',
leanin on each others shoulders.
Then we turn around and see we've come so far somehow.

We're halfway there, were lookin' good now.
Nothin's gunna get in the way.
Were halfway there and lookin back now.
I'd never thought that I'd ever say
We're halfway there
We're halfway there.

How you ever gunna reach the stars
If you never get off the ground
and your always here were you are,
If you let life knock you down.

Were halfway there, were lookin good now.
Nothin's gunna get in the way.
Were halfway there, and lookin back now
Id never thought that id ever say.
Were halfway there
Were halfway there.
