Delusions: or watchamacall-em'

The unreflected life is not worth living (Socrates)--The unlived life is not worth reflecting upon (Buddhist) No man is happy without a delusion of some kind. Delusions are as necessary to our happiness as realities. – Christian nevell bovee-

What's your thing?

Recently went through my uni's website again and was pleasantly surprised to find this.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
What's my thing? Music, Words, Art, Travel, People -how much does Pharmacy fit in? a wee bit, or a stepping stone?

I want to create art (songs, literature, images) that will touch the heart, create realisation-of God's love for people, of His endless hope instead of a hopeless end that so many only see.

Pieces that instill motivation & conviction- people to get out of ruts, addiction, or just simply the mundane.

I want to travel to new countries, cultures, and learn about diff customs- and share with them my own as well.

I want to be involved in a ministry of restoration, linked to a proper organization, that reaches out to communities, to bring healing and deliverance. If possible, on a multinational scale.

In all this, sharing the greatest Gift of all.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
As for now, i am a Pharmacy student with two 3000-word essays to write and a huge report to complete; - who still gets bugged by distracting thoughts, has addictions to break, and gets his class venues and times mixed up; -who doesn't have the best people skills and sometimes doesn't care at all about the rest of the world.

So does that mean I quit studying altogether? Not if Col 3:23 rings true in my life. His word- which is not merely one of My Things but is The Thing. And since He knows best what makes me tick (He being my creator), I can't go wrong.
Put into the right perspective, studying will be my thing.

Perhaps Pharmacy has given me a better heart for people? - (not really, church did a far greater job)
Perhaps Pharmacy will be a launchpad for a future ministry? - (yes, maybe...)
Perhaps it wasn't at all about Pharmacy, rather about the people & experiences ive come into contact with? (hmm..)

21 years elapsed. Our lives in the 21st century average out about 75 years.

What will my epitaph read?

"This is your life, are you who you wanna be...?" - This Is Your Life (Switchfoot)
