10. One Life to Live

I was in the middle of BIBLE 120, half way asleep, when Dr. Johnson said something to catch my attention. He said " You only have one life to live." Of course i was laughing inside because i couldn't believe he said something so lame out loud for everyone to hear, but then i started realizing. This is my only life. Am i making the right decisions that i can prosper from in my future. Am i doing the right thing. Do i want to be a nurse, or am i just doing it because of the money and the prestige that comes from the title. These were some hard hitting topics that I could only figure out in time. But luckily, we live in a society that we dont have to stay in our first profession in order to make a living. We have options. We can go back to school and pick up another major or we can get certified in our original major and comp out of all of the "annoying" duties of our careers. Thank God for financial aid. lol.

That makes me wonder... if cats have nine lives, what happens to the other eight? Just a little humor, I guess. But seriously, it is kind of scary to think we have one life to live. We might as well make the most of it and enjoy it while we can.
