V is for Vision

Back in college I used to write out my goals for each school year whether they be short term, long term, school-related, personal - you get the point. And then I'd look back and see how each year went, journal about it blah blah blah. Most may know how this process works, or most are thinking this girl's cheesy. **And of course by "most", I'm referring to the 3 people that I know how are actually reading my blog. Pahaha. And I thank you...**
Onwards! I always lose focus...So I was sitting here at work rethinking every word of venting/gossip/complaining I've vomited out of my mouth today, and then mentally kicking myself for not following through with what I've resolved to do (which would be NOT to do that anymore), and my mind wandered back to when I used to have goals for every year. And that led me to thinking about having a vision statement for myself and what I intend on doing with life this half-over 2008 year. So I've decided to compose some sort of vision for the rest of this year, and probably something that I can add on to or modify from year to year as I march on to chronological maturity*. Here it is, hold me to it, also subject to change:

"To live life filled with a compassion for people, zeal for the work that I do and led by a pattern of godliness."

End post.
