Sooooo....
i've given up facebook for Lent. i'm not even catholic. what's up with this?!?!
we're goin on 72 hours and i am seriously about to loose my mind.
i am an admitted adict.
it's bad.
so, lucky for blogspot...i just blog more now.
2 posts in one day...WHAT?!?
crazy. i know.
as i sit here, in my dorm there are quite a few things running through my head.
happiness...what is it?
i've always known happiness and joy are two different things. i strive for joy. i have joy. i have Him. He is my joy. but i don't always have happiness. i'd like to, but sometimes i feel like that's impossible. things make me sad, mad, hurt, confused, and just all over upset. it happens.
so as i try to figure out what happiness is...i think it might totally be dependent on circumstances. talk about a bi-polar feeling, huh?
if that's the case...i don't want to be happy. i don't want happiness to be my goal. joy - sure. happiness - not so much. striving for an ever changing thing that is never guaranteed is not what i want. i will strive for joy...an over abundance of joy. in my Lord. and in my family. and in my friends. and in every single blessing i get showered on me every day. i will remind myself that i have no reason to be anything but joyful... joyful. not happy.
