I love this song, Screen, props to Ryan for introducing it to me. I work at Fedex. I hate it. But I know it's gotta suck (might even get suckier) before it can get better. I had been praying a lot lately as to what I'm supposed to be doing and I realized I got my answer; gotta hang in there and keep trying. Being as impatient as I can be, I had hoped there was more to it right now but there isn't. I went to the coffee shop on Water street the other day for some peace and quiet so I could write and practice my Japanese. They had this crappy, heavy metal bands-who-couldn't-suck-more fest at Old City. So the music was blaring as these people screamed into the microphone. I laughed to myself, I came for solace and I got heavy metal. Bad, very bad, heavy metal at that. I stayed up at Oswego mainly for karate school and I got Fedex. It could be worse, though, they could have been playing country music at Old City that day and I could be unemployed. Bearing that in mind, I tuned out the music, sipped my hot chocolate and wrote for hours. After a while, I didn't even realize the music had stopped, goes to show what happens when I stop dwelling on the negative and use the resources that God is giving me.
