While I lay here watching Duke fight with Texas A&M, I'm reminded that it is almost 2014. It seemed like yesterday that we were worried about the possible 2000 problems-How would our computers work; is it time for the antichrist to take over; should I be scared? So many concerns and yet very few things happened as they predicted.
I'm sure there are people who try to figure out 2014, before it happens. I haven't heard any predictions except sports expectations. I can't help but wonder - Should I be more concerned about this year? I have a tendency to go from one extreme to the other. I've tried to be " Middle of the Road" but it really seems unexciting to me. Not that I want more excitement in my life, it seems like it just happens. I hate "plodding" along with all the mundane circumstances that surely will come my way yet I hate to open a can of worms that I can't handle. What is the answer? I'm not sure there is one.
I will probably just get up, follow my routine for that day, and go to bed that night, as I usually do. I definitely will thank God for all His kindness to me. And, I will see friends as often as possible. When it comes to the life in general, I think Garth Brooks said it best when he sang, " I could have missed the pain, but I would had to miss the dance."
