My mind has been ticking alot these days. The past Mand has seemed to return and that's good, at least I can sit down and ponder in deep thoughts.
Many people spend half of their life searching exactly who they are. Usually not starting from inside, but from their eyes. They start to keep a lookout for those really cool and sophisticated people whom they can imitate and soon, you'll see a Brad Pitt inspired. (If you get what I mean.)
What they do not actually know is that God has created us, every individual one of us as unique as He can. Thus, this tells us that we need not spend half of our lives searching who we are and what we are by the people around us. The real you is already inside of you yourself. He's just being hidden inside by ourselves all the time.
The real essence of life is not figuring out what life is all about, it's actually finding out who you are in Christ, because in Him, we can find our very own self, our very own character, our very own personality and our very own passions and dreams in Him.
