so it's been awhile. a lot of things have changed, a lot have stayed the same.
I suppose the biggest news that I have is that I am now employed. I was lucky enough to have my Computer Science professor recommend me for a job in the department doing research on Constraint Processing, working on handling a database and its processes as well as improving and completing the Sudoku solver that someone has previous written here at the university.
otherwise, I have been busy with classes and working on just finding a balance in life. ends up that might be one of the biggest things I learn in the next four years, how to maintain a balanced life of productivity, relaxation, and enjoyment of the little things. it seems to easy to get caught up in everything and just become overwhelmed at the immensity of life.
sometimes I really struggle to find the silver lining.
but fortunately it's there. Colleen and I have started reading Job, which is a real testament to how to handle things when they seem overwhelming. one of my favorite verses says "shall we accept good from God, but not trouble?" it has really put things in perspective for me.
so I suppose, sitting back and looking at life, life is really beautiful right now.
I can only hope that it continues this way.

thank you for that quote. i need to revisit job and view it from a more mature point of view than the last time i read it. i read it in like 10th grade and it just made me feel frustrated with the lord.

Your optimism inspires me.
