School . . . BLARGH!

Yes, I am blaming the fact that I did not post on school. Sorry! But I'm on now. I have decided that i will be posting on Saturdays. I will try to have it done by noon, but sports for the girls societies are often in the morning. So, Saturday it will be!

While I am not really looking forward to the school year i am looking forward to some structure and routine. I don't know about you, but I feel like i get a lot more done when i have the restrictive structure of classes, and a regular work schedule. While it is "restrictive", when I think about it i realize that restrictions are what keep me from not doing things that i really have no need to do, and help me do what is right. While I don't really like restrictions, I know that they are necessary for us as flawed humans to work together and to get anything done. I mean think about it. If there wasn't a governmental law, Biblical command and/or societal expectation that people should not kill each other over petty or even serious offenses, there would be a lot more murders today. While most of us would say, "i would never kill someone over something," there have been those times in the past that we really wish that our conscience would not bother us as we desire to make someone pay for the wrong they have committed against us. Rules, restrictions and other such statutes are in place to make life with others possible. I know that i have in the past (and probably will in the future) complained about a rule that i thought was stupid. We must keep in mind that when we do that we are only thinking of ourselves. So, next time you think, "I don't understand why I can't do this!" relax, it's probably just to make interaction with other people go more smoothly.
And that is my thought for the week :-)
