To be honest, I'm kind of trying to figure that out for myself.
I mean, when I was a child I had all these dreams of how to grow up, and what to do (as children usually do). But I also was very easily influenced, and had that (what I believe is natural for children) desire to be "just like mommy". As I got older, in my young adult years, I was one of very few young adults in my church and had several "moms" and a few church "dads" that tried to influence me (some more than others) and because I was so easily influenced at the time there are/were several things that I allowed myself to be talked out of.
Well, then came marriage and not to long after a crew of kiddos
.
So now, many "interest" kind of revolve around what the family as a whole is into (not that I'm complaining, we do some pretty cool stuff!) But I'm beginning to be able to separate is this truly me, or is it because of my role?
The awesome thing about it all though is that as I let go of what I want, or thought I wanted and just say "hey Lord what do YOU want here?" EVERYTHING falls into place.
Um, but I can 2nd Zero's list, I like those things too.
