Completing a Chapter

It's quite fantastic to me that I have just completed the last "essay" for this semester of school. I only have a final on Easter Sunday to take and I will have actually completed my state credential. Fantastic, you ask? Well, of course, because upon completing this semester, I will have 77+ college credits and no "real" degree. A friend of mine says, "Misty, you are just diverse." I say I just really haven't had the guts to complete the real task at hand. I mean come on, completing a degree means a real job and responsibilities. Not that I don't have either but do I really want to be "accomplished"?
I suppose I do. I plan to take myself to see an advisor and see what we can make of all this diversity. :) Ahh, who knew I'd ever reach this point? I can just hear my Dad now, if he were still around, saying "Now, now, she has actually found some focus to her random ways. Maybe she'll be something after all." Funny thing is through the years, I've learned that we are all something and something far more amazing than a degree-we are God's children and we work to complete a plan far bigger than our own. A plan so large that we can not in all of our years really comprehend. And so, while we tarry along making our plans we are following God's (I hope) and making a difference to others we come alongside. Somehow I think that I may have been "accomplished" the day I got nicknamed "Sunshine" by Granny Tucker.
