I’m So Excited!!!
I used to be so excitable about so many different things
that would occur over the course of my life.
Excited about summer break from school, excited about Christmas, excited
about the boy checking the box on the note I sent saying, “he liked me too” and
not the maybe box. Excited about my birthday coming up, excited
about going to Daytona Beach for Spring Break, excited about my first sleep over
away from the house, excited about camp, excited about a gift, excited about my
first date or a new hairdo. Excited to
get my first apartment and furnishing it, excited about getting married and
having kids, excited sometimes for no apparent reason. But now I get excited about things that are
more external and existential more so rather than those which only affect me
personally. The other day when I went to
get my tires rotated and I was excited that I kept the appointment because it
meant that I was maturing and growing because I was more focused on my kids
riding safely, and not just my own inconvenience of having to take the time out
of my day to do some menial, yet el import ante task. Just EXCITED, EXCITED,
EXCITED. You get my drift that I was
EXCITED! Not the Pointer Sister’s excited because I could hide it. Being excited void of expectation is just a form of adrenaline rush that will
soon wear off.
Now I find myself excited when I know that I am doing what I
can to please God and ascend from faith-to-faith and from glory-to-glory.
I am excited now about having an expectation in my heart
that only God himself can reveal and bring to pass.
What are you excited about?
