New Beginnings

               During my final meeting with the vocations director, I wondered what kind of response I should have to being told that I would not return to school. A whole host of thoughts and emotions flooded me all at once. I was angry, sad, overjoyed, relieved, and aggravated all at once. Being who I am, I tried to put these emotions into words, but completely failed.

               My thoughts were as difficult to describe as my emotions. They were seemingly random, unimportant, but rational. First, I realized that I would not get to eat at my favorite restaurant for a very long time, and I had personally told the owner that I would be back. I realized that I would have to make a trip up to conception to collect my things, and perhaps at that time I could get to Simply Siam. If I was lucky, perhaps I could score a dinner at a Brazilian steakhouse. At this point, I realized that I had not eaten all day, and should really stop thinking about food.

               My next thought was that I didn’t know what I would do with my blog. I figure people may want to read the ramblings of a seminarian, but would easily gloss over another young Catholic blog. I have no central topic. My views are not always spiritual; they are not always funny. My thoughts, like in my last meeting are completely random.

               Yet, as random as all my thoughts are, I think that they all stem from a valid hunger. I know that other people share my sentiments and hunger as well. As random as my thoughts are, I hope my readers can appreciate them.
