i remember being in middle school and keeping a journal. one of the favorite questions to answer and write about was, "what do you think it will be like in the year 2000." things like flying cars, living on the moon in space suits and robot house keepers were the frequent answers.
well, here we are 11 years in to 2000 and we now know our answers should have been based around technology, like iphones that link us to the internet and allow us to have music, internet and telephone service basically worldwide. nooks and kindles that download books for reading anywhere and at anytime, and gps devices to prevent people like me, without a sense of direction, from getting lost in this world.
i think overall the things in life that are truly important and really matter haven't changed all that much.
we are still free humans walking around this life dependent on God's glory and grace in our lives every day. seeking and searching a journey that is fulfilling and lasting, one that leaves an imprint on the lives of others. involvement in a community, true friendships, learning to love deeply, becoming transparent.
