more wasted time

Shoot for the moon

“Shoot for the moon, because if you miss at least you will be among the stars.”

I have no idea who said this. All I know is that at some point in history it has been said (and in turn, allowing me to use it)

Well, its pretty much self-explanatory. You need to set your sights on something. It doesn’t matter what, just the fact that you set your sights on something. It doesn’t matter whether you achieve it or not. As long as you have a purpose for each day of your life.

I go to church a lot more than most people. I’ve gone to a Christian school for all of my life. But I’ll be honest. Sometimes I find it hard to believe. My mind starts to wonder around, thinking about how far-fetched the thought of God is. But then I get back to where my mind is supposed to be- It doesn’t matter how hard to believe it is, all that matters is that I have faith.

When I tied this together with the quote, I got to thinking about whether the moon that I’m shooting for is the one god wants me to set my sights on. I thought about the movie that I went to see with my friends. (batman: the dark knight) yeah, I know- abrupt subject change. There was part of the movie where people were in boats, and had the choice of living but blowing up the other boat with everyone on it, or waiting for midnight where they got blown up anyways, waiting until the other boat decided to blow them up. At midnight, neither boat had decided to give in and blow their neighbors up.

I began to think- Would I step in front of a bullet for my friends? Of course, I though. But how easy is it for me to say that- would I really sacrifice myself for someone else? I thought about it long and hard.

I have many plans for my life. I am shooting for the moon. I plan to be very successful- but what if god’s plan for me is different?

I finally decided on an answer that I was comfortable with. I may not like everyone that I know. But if I had the chance, I would sacrifice myself for them. I could not live with the guilt, knowing that I passed on a chance to help them

Now this is an extreme comparison, but I am bothered about what is going on with Amara. I don’t know if what Harry says is true about Amara, but she may be drinking.

Drinking underage is one of the main reasons people go to drugs. Now, Amara may not be acting as immaturely as we all think. But it doesn’t matter- we cant risk it. Why are we all sitting here worrying about her hurting our feelings? We need to sacrifice ourselves. I don’t know whether Amara is going to make more mistakes. But if she does, I will be saying to myself “George, you just sat there and let her wash her life down the drain.” We need to do something. She will listen to us if we double team her.

She has a good life. We can’t let her waste it like this. What are we doing right now? Nothing. We sit and watched saying “Amara is being stupid.” Why are we not out there telling her that she is making a mistake?
