Stunning Realization

Has the weather been like this for you?

 What to say?  This past week ended with a slap in my face.  The funniest thing was that it always happen right as I think things are coming together in harmony.  Despite of the inconveniences that happened in my personal life, I still think life has been very good.

Aside from some minor nuisance that had occurred, I discovered some aspects of people I know I found quite...weird.

I often wondered what caused people to be living the way they are, and after some candid talks, I was able to take a glimpse into their choices in life.  Alas, the results were not surprising.  Judging from the choices they made, it was not a wonder how their current situation came to reality.  This was a cause of much intrigue.  Moreover, this raised a few yellow flags.  (Yes, yellow flags.  Just cautionary signs to not make the same decisions they did.  After all, they are great people.)

It is not up to me to judge the moral character of their choices, but I know I wouldn't make the same ones.  However, it greatly amuses to see them living out their agencies.

Other notable events include Dalin proposing to Kris.  For having dated for only about 5 months, most people would say that is too soon.  If you thought that was soon, check out Claire and Tyler after a month and half.  Remember, in Provo, it can get much worse.  From a LDS perspective, I think Dalin and Kris are on solid ground.

Where does that leave me?  Who knows?  I'm too busy to figure out what I'm having for dinner.  The colloquial "make time for the person you like" is overused unrealistically.  I bet people who say that obviously never met families where members hardly see each other due to strenuous schedule.

My outlook is hopeful, but I am aware of the dangers and looming dooms that lurks about the safe harbors of the future.

In these times, I'm glad I have the friends and roommates that played significant roles in my life.
