No Accidents

Today has been quite the day. God definitely has no accidents in anything in my life.

I will start by how my day started. I woke up on time this morning! Amazing. I met with a friend from class to study for our first Lab exam in Anatomy and Physiology II tomorrow. It was great. I found things coming easy to me. I have totally prepared myself for the test tomorrow. I will still pray that God meets me in the room for my test to help keep my mind on my studies and not on other worldly things. Then I went to my sociology class. It was fun. I learned about the cultures in this world as a general. Our assignment for today was to write in three sentences what Americans are. We were suppose to write in the idea of telling someone who is not from America. So, I basically said this, " Americans are selfish. Americans are materialistic. Americans are conceited." I know this is not what we want to be known as but it is true for the general public. We all want what is best for themselves. We want what others can't have or do have and we will go in debt trying to acquire it. And we think so highly of ourselves. Like we are better than anyone else in this planet. I know this may be a shock but this is how I feel. If you don't like it change it. It can change if each person worries about them self. I know I don't like the accusations, so I want to change me. I don't want to be selfish, I want to be selfless to an extent. I still need to take care of me. I don't want to be materialistic, so I will only get what I need and not go more than that. Maybe on an occasion I will treat myself to one nice thing. Everything else I want to make sure it is a necessity over a desire. And lastly, I don't want to be conceited. Actually I don't see myself this way, but I am sure I still do it to some extent. So, I will be praying every day that God helps me keep to these ways and live for Him and no one else!

After class, I went to Wal-mart to get a salad from Subway. It was the best thing I have eaten in some time. I really want to lose this extra weight quickly. So, I made a plan to were I will eat five 100 calorie snacks and then for dinner eat a 500 calorie meal. I tried it out today. I was full for most of the day. So, once I got my food, I went back to school for the first meeting of the Sociology club. I am excited about this. I think I want to be apart of the leadership team. I am not sure if I want to be the President, Vice-President, Treasurer, or the Secretary. I am praying about it and doing some research first before I nominate myself. The meeting went really well. Four people showed up, including myself, and we discussed what we would like to take the sociology club to. We talked mostly about doing community service and being apart of the community. I really like this. I hope we follow through. I came up with an idea, that normally I wouldn't have suggested just in case no one liked it, to use Facebook as a grounds for communicating with each other until we can get a common time for everyone to meet. The faculty for our club liked the idea. So he will be running it by the other members and see what they think. If they like it I will be the one to set it up. How cool is that! Which then makes me feel like I should go for President or the Secretary.

After the meeting ended, I went home to change to go workout. I ran two miles and walked one mile at a fast pace in 30 minutes. It felt so great. Exercise really makes me feel better about myself. I look forward to seeing how great I look by the end of the year. I will post a picture when I get to the weight I would like.

I came home to shower and get ready for my first Life Group meeting with the church I am attending regularly. This is where my no accident comes in. I was put in this group by the people of the church and you wouldn't believe what group I was in. I am in the group with the guy that I like. I don't know if this is a God thing or not, but I get to see if I connect with him without him knowing about it. He doesn't know any of this and I am going to keep it that way just in case it doesn't work out we can still be friends without any awkwardness. I know God has someone out there for me. I am also keeping my eyes and ears open to see what God is telling me to do. I am not going to make a move until I know it is right. This will be interesting though. I hope I can keep my feelings to myself without anyone knowing. We will see.

Until then,
Dannie
