The END is Near! Well, my schooling at least.

So, the time comes when eventually you reach senior status in school. Yes, the feeling of superiority and a since of pride for the educational institution. All the teachers know you by first and last name, you are finally able to relax in the classroom setting, and for about nine months you are happy and peaceful while everything is going smoothly in the right direction…. Then graduation comes.

What now? Do I go to college for another four whole years or a University for a higher degree? Do I try to find a job in the work force? Where am I going to live: big city or small town? How am I going to find that special person I (hopefully) will spend the rest of my life with?

And the world comes crashing down. All of a sudden life isn’t as easy. Decisions have to be made and in many cases time isn’t an abundant resource. Money becomes an even bigger issue as students leave home or move out from under Residential Life care. In spite of all the preparation their whole life, students are most likely not ready to adapt to the business ecosystem. The norms of student life fade away as (again, hopefully) financial and personal adult maturity and responsibility set in.

These are just my own thoughts and concerns as I progress through my last year at Lee University. I know the answers will come at the right time as He always provides for me. I have a great family and friends that have and (still, hopefully)  always will help me when I get into trouble, as I would do the same for them. Also, my southern Christian up-bringing tells me to always rely on God and He shall direct your path.
