Trying to Focus

As I sat in class today, with half a dozen other students, we chatted as we waited for class to begin. It was then I realised how close I am to the end of the semester. This semester ends at the end of March - one credit and a thesis left to go.

I must admit that the ordination stuff is a little "distracting" - in a good way. My mind keeps wanting to drift away from studies and toward ordination prep. The truth is that for the moment, there's not a lot of "prep" for me to do. At the moment, it's a matter of waiting for meetings, waiting for announcements about curacies, and trying to be patient.

Have you ever noticed that when someone says "Don't look down, the first thing you do is ... look down". Hearing "Be patient!" can be like that too, sometimes.
