So I should be studying.
Especially since I've only a and hour and a half left in which to study, then I need to get up, to go work, and hopefully get off of work in time to change before my test. Then, I go to my other work, and hopefully come back with enough time in which to study for my next test.
My goal is to get C's in these two classes. As long as I pass and graduate...although it'd make my transcript (pardon me) totally suck.
But I was actually coming here to say something good. I need tobe thinking more positively, so while I'd like to punch something right now, I'm going to take the positive side of the road, and tell about the birdies. We had a nest of birds in a planter on our porch, and Rachel and mom have been watching them since before they hatched. Apparently almost all of them left the nest today... all except Benjamin. According to Mom, he was the last one hatched, and his mom is still feeding him yummy grubs, and doesn't seem to mind him staying. All of his brothers and sisters left, probably not to return, but he's huddled in the bottom of the nest, looking very small without his brothers and sisters there to crowd around him,
Sometimes I feel like that bird. Flapping my wings, and wanting to leave, because everyone else has! But I end up huddled in the bottom of the nest, disappointed in myself, but unwilling to leave.
Benjamin will probably wrack up the courage to leave tomorrow. He just needs a little bit to adjust, to get himself used to the idea of flying out on his own. Pretty soon he'll find a pretty mate, and next year who knows? Maybe he'll be back at the planter, helping his children leave the nest. Thank goodness our lives aren't as quick as a wren's but they all follow a similar pattern.We all need to learn how to use our wings to glide on the air, and get strong enough to leave. Goodness knows I'm striving to do so.... I just need to stay huddled in this nest a few days longer. All by myself, waiting for that last bit of food, and then the nudge to open my wings and fly.
