I just finished a 30 minute stretch then walked around my neighborhood. I feel great now. I think stretching is very peaceful. I try to do it every day, and I work on my splits all the time. I'm about half an inch from doing a full right split, which is super exciting for me!
Mostly everyone has told me I should become a ballerina and dance a lot more. I like to dance, but I don't think I'm that graceful (which mom denies). I wish I could get into a dance school and possibly a gymnastic school. Unfortunately, there aren't any gymnastic schools around here, but there are some ballet schools.
So... I've been thinking a lot about what I want to be when I grow up. Here's my list so far:
1. Ballerina and/or gymnast
2. Dolphin trainer
3. Eye doctor
4. Interior designer
5. Actress
6. Singer/Guitarist
I even have my college picked out. But whatever God plans for me is totally fine. I can't choose my life, because God might not what want I want. I guess we can't see eye to eye with God sometimes, but everything He chooses is perfect.
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.
Be not wise in your own eyes;
fear the LORD and turn away from evil."
-Proverbs 3:5-7
To me that means do not be hopeful in yourself, but trust that the Lord will guide you through your days. "Be not wise in your own eyes" is a big verse for me. I'm trying hard not to think my way is perfect, and trust that His is.
