Growing Up

Thursday, January 05, 2006

With regards to Jo's 'winning' entry on growing old, I've laid my thoughts on this humble blog about the unescapable step before that.

Growing up.

So many things have changed in the past few months. XPLC, imminent Maranatha leadership, Youth Camp, Prayer Walk and upcoming activities like facilitating for the CC4 confirmation program, Easter Fiesta and Prayer Rally. So many activities which neccesitates leadership and the looming appointment of it. I fear what I feel.

Fear.
Half-baked ability.
Feeble spirituality.

These are but a few. But nothing scares me more than having to be an example for the younger youths. I feel compelled to carry myself as a:

more confident,
less whiny (yes, you read that right),
more forward looking,
less complacent,
more disciplined,
less annoying,
more selfless,
less selfish,
more serious,
less fickle.
more listening,
less talking.

There's only one thing I need.

Balance.

People talk about making new year's resolutions all the time. I've tried making some in my juvenile days, but gave up because I never fulfilled most, or even any of them. I think it's high time I set the goals that I want to reach. I am after all, turning eighteen.

Yup.
1 -8.
