I have zero motivation. None what so ever to study. I always seem to have this problem. I've never been a studier. It seems to come naturally for some, or maybe they just have a better work ethic than I do. I just don't have the motivation to do these things. Finals are stupid. I have two days standing between me and Toledo. Two days. I can do it!!!
So, Thursday was my last day in Foundations of Early Childhood and as much as my professor annoys the crap out of me, I can't help but listen to her moments of wisdom. She always reads us a devotional before class and typically its topic is sex or marriage, this one was slightly different. Ever heard of a guinea hen? Well these are the only types of hens that fly straight up instead of forward like most hens. While they're talented, they're stupid. Incredibly stupid. She told us a story of a friend of hers that owns a farm with plenty of guinea hens. Apparently one night, a fox or some other woodland creature came looking for a snack. Well, instead of using their talents and flying up...they ran around like stupid hens. If they just would've looked up and realized they could've escaped the fox's teeth by flying they wouldn't have died. Here's where this applies to life. Think about it...each one is blessed with different talents given to us by God. Now when things get so overwhelming and you feel like you're being chased by everything and everyone...are you going to be smarter than the guinea hen and look up and see that God is the escape route? He's the one that will help you through the moments of turmoil and he's the one that can save you. I'm sorry if this doesn't make much sense...my brain has been fried by finals and academics, but if think about it and it might make a little more sense.
