2. Getting married
3. Appearance
4. Advancing at the workplace

I had a surprisingly relaxing weekend a few weeks ago which is rare.  It’s a little odd because I find myself thinking that I’m busy all the time.  All the time!  Yet, I think I’ve blurred the line of what’s really busy and what’s not.  I think the time spent hanging out with people has blurred into the time spent doing other things like playing basketball or going to Exodus and who knows what else.  And I think that sometimes when I do have a free moment – I immediately think about what can we do today as in what can my friends and I all do today.  Sometimes I do feel like there’s no time to do laundry, haha.  Anyway, a few weeks ago it was relaxing and I was hanging out with people too.  On the one morning, I had an office event at mission bay – it was actually nice out and pretty chill.  Then in the afternoon, I played a casual game of frisbee golf at the neighboring park – that was also super relaxing.  And then to top it off – the next day we went and walked around La Jolla Cove.  I forgot how much I love walking along the beach.  :)  It really puts me in a different mindset.  I always am reminded of how beautiful God’s creation is at the beach and it puts me at such a peaceful state of mind.  I used to always go to the beach and watch the sunset and pray when I was stressed.  So as we were walking around, I found myself unconsciously walking ahead of everyone because I was just so lost in the moment, gazing into the ocean, admiring how beautiful it was and just praising God.

Thinking back to that day actually reminds me of a point A. made that day, that humans are never satisfied.  It is so true.  It’s always too hot, too cold, nothing to do, too many things to do, tired, too much energy, too stressed, too routine, there’s always something.  We need to remember that God can satisfy us in everything.
