Just when I thought I had at least a little bit of insight on where my life was going I've come to yet another fork in the road.
I'm writing this article from San Francisco as I'm visiting with my good friend and bro in Christ Greg (check out his blog under my Links).
Anyway, regarding this fork in the road of my life…
I was let go from my job yesterday just before I left work to get ready to come out here to CA. You want to know the real kicker? I just bought a new house this past Tuesday. I also found this kind of funny this happened to me soon after writing the 'Today' article. So I have my own words, as well as Jesus Christ's, providing me both with accountability and encouragement. I also have a fun filled week to look forward to here in CA. I guess I should also mention that misery loves company and Greg is coincidentally facing the same harsh reality. Thankfully, though, he's been given ample notice and provisions, but as with me he has to make some big decisions soon. If you want to read more about Greg's latest adventures go check out his blog.
The good news is that I've been taking real estate classes and hope to be doing this full time in the next few weeks. I'd also like to get involved in a part/full time ministry. I'm considering writing a book on this blog and I'm following engineering leads, though honestly I've had about enough of engineering and I'm sick of moving.
I'll try to write more about this after I get more sleep, enjoy my CA vacation and have more time to digest all this. I'm just thankful I have a savior and provider who has seen me through worse and who will see me through this trek in the wilderness.

Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone.
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'.
Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who
That it's namin'.
For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin'.
Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside
And it is ragin'.
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'.
Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is
Rapidly agin'.
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'.
The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is
Rapidly fadin'.
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'.
Well said GFG.
