The beginning of the end... and then a beginning.

It's hard to believe that in three months' time, I will be done optometry school and even board exams. The most incredible thought is that it isn't an end that I will be coming to, but rather, a new beginning. Although it's easy to get caught up in the now - this class, this exam, this internship - everything has merely been preparation: training sessions before the big game.
I need a bigger lens for looking at life.

Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.
