Ok so I totally respect my parents, I always have and always will. But you know those times when you just don't wanna listen to them and just wanna do what you want to? Definitely just had one of those experiences.
My best friend Stacie asked me a while ago if I wanted to go to Tennessee with her so she could see a few of her friends down there. I so wanted to go because I've hung out with these guys and they are really neat Christian guys and I've never been to Tennessee so I thought that would be fun too. It would also be the first time Stacie and I had any time to really spend with each other since we go to completely different colleges and a road trip with your best friend? I mean...this trip sounds awesome!
But then both of my parents step in and say they don't have a good feeling about the trip...Of course, me being me, I wanted to contradict this by showing them all the positives. I ask if they let either of my older sisters go on trips like this and they both got to go on trips like that...But being the youngest, of course, my parents are much more protective of me. So they came down like a hammer on me and said no. I am 18 so I can technically make my own decisions, of course I know this would be foolish since I'm told by God to respect and listen to them, in everything, and not to mention that they also pay for college.
I guess this whole experience is a learning time for me, because now I'm stuck in Fort Worth for the rest of my break. And I bet they won't let me go to another thing I wanna do...Gotta love my life.
Well I'm gonna look at this from a different perspective. God has me here for a reason, maybe I'm supposed to spend time with an old friend or do something to bless someone else over the break. Who knows? Only God knows
