What a Life.

Do you ever wonder if you can't do it all?

This has been my life the past few days.

Intern. School. Work. Homework. Sorority. Sleep. (sometimes)

I feel like I'm cutting myself too thin. I'm 19 and I already am partaking in a life that most 30 year olds don't even try to achieve. I get it. I'm in college. And I have a REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, hard time saying no to people, but sometimes I just gotta throw in the towel and quit. (Believe me, easier said then done.)

But in the long run, am I really benefiting myself? All my friends are going to parties and hanging out on Friday nights when I'm working or studying or participating in one of the many other countless things I've commited to. Many say I'm just prepping myself for the future and they are right, if I want to become President I am aware that I'm going to have to work for it, and work hard none the less, but I'm sure Sandra Day O'Connor had a social life before she became a Supreme Court Justice and Sarah Palin was a regular hockey mom before she stepped into the political arena. So why shouldn't I, right?


So maybe I can answer my own question...

It's alright to not be able to do everything.

 It's okay to mess up every now and again.

And it's okay to not be perfect.

2 Corinthians 13:9  For we are glad when we are weak and you are strong. Your restoration is what we pray for.
