discouragement

I have a decent education: a BA, an M. Div. Not a bad grade-point average either. I've even had opportunities to do cool things like officiate weddings, present academic papers, teach college classes, speak on the radio, and write curriculum. For better or for worse, lots of intelligent, respectable people have confidence in me.

Why is it, then, that I spend so much of my time feeling like I don't have a clue what I'm doing?

welcome to the club, my friend. if it is of any consequence, i think it was aristotle who said something to the effect of, 'the more i learn, the more i am aware of how much i don't know'... or something like that.
solo se que no se nada.

Oh, Kelli-I can relate to your sentiments more than you could know right now. We need to chat soon!!! Love you! :)

I suppose in a couple of weeks we can have this conversation face-to-face... but to get it started, I have come to a place where you simply pursue those things that bring you challenge, empowerment, peace, and sacrifice all at the same time.

see ya soon...

You forgot to list your most amazing academic accomplishment. Freshmen Year you narrated "Wind Beneath my Wings: A Documentary of the Moth"
Didn't the photography win a Pulitzer?

Thanks for reminding me, Amy! I need to remember to put the Mothumentary on my CV!
