Transform... your life



Im back... while school is still intense and I lack the time to write, I realize that this is a healthy outlet for me, and for others who want to get to know me. I've decided to try to be consistent in certain areas of my life. No matter how busy life gets, I want to keep some habits. Today's Random Thoughts don't come from Graduate school, but from casual readings. I found this article about Shia LaBeouf, and I was surprised at his honesty and humility in this article. I took a few things from this interview. The first, was that honesty is refreshing, especially since it reminds you that no one has it all together no matter how blessed they seem. Second, I was reminded of how fleeting money and fame truly are. I'm not addressing them as true evils, but interesting how even fame is itself a trap. There is no freedom except through Christ, anything else is like grasping at sand, it just sifts through your fingers. I say this, not as one who finally understand, but as a Sand Grasper. I, like Shia LaBeouf don't pretend to have all the answers; I'm honest about that. Still, at least I'm asking questions...
(See Matthew 7:26)
