Stephen

I love my son and I pray for him in this latest change. He's been in graduate school for physical therapy for 18 months. He has now withdrawn from school saying "I don't know what I want to do but I know what I don't want to do" and that's this career. So he has started the ball rolling on all this and has plans to move to Gainesville to live with some friends from UGA and see what happens from there. I pray for God's direction and that he'll seek it seriously and listen carefully. I'm sad but yet I am also proud of him...that he had the courage to stop and turn around. It would have been easier for him to stay with it I think. So, here we go again. We're having a lot of changes lately. Thank You, Lord, for being the constant in my life.

Hey Bambi! i just discovered your blog this morning and I'm really enjoying it! Anyway, I know this blog is from a while ago, but I wanted to say that yes, it was a brave thing for Stephen to do to withdraw from school. I went through a similar thing the summer after I graduated college, I had my law school acceptance in hand and said, nope don't want to do this! Mother was a little shocked. I told Dad that I dreaded the thought of going to law school but the thought of going to grad school thrilled me. He said, "life is too short, be thrilled." I pray that Stephen finds what he truly loves. Tell him to read "The Alchemist" if he hasn't, fabulous book.
