Week 7 - Future: I dare you to move

Hello friends, sorry im posting this late on tuesday. I hope all of you are doing great out there this lovely spring evening. My cousin, Johnny M. came down to Greenville this past weekend and we had a blast. We went to falls park at 3am and jammed out on the waterfall with my boombox, and yes I mean the middle of the waterfall on the rocks =). We saw the movie 21 which was quite amazing and stirred me up inside because I felt I could relate to it in many ways. For example, there was a really gorgeous girl in the movie and she reminded me of one of my friends, who I used to have a huge crush on ;). All in all though My cousin and I had a great time and we talked a lot about our futures and our vocations which inspired me to write about this week's topic.
Anyways, So I am at a crossroads in my life right now, graduating from college and not quite sure what Im gonna do with my life or where God is calling me to go. I am looking at maybe volunteering with the Americore but not sure at all.
Anyways my future seems to be hanging in the balance, and this week I wanted to share some songs that make me think about the future and inspire me. I have so many can be applicable but I chose these 9 which I feel cover a wide spectrum of ideas. They pertain to a few different areas of life and of our futures. Dare you to move, Before its too late and the world aint slowing down, dont slow down, and dont wait are all songs which encourage us to seize the day, take action and find our calling. Sooner or later, Kings in Castles, famous, and wouldnt it be nice, are all optimistic songs about having sucess in love and life in the future. Heaven forbid by the Fray is the one standout of the group this song encourages us about love and tells us to "hold on tight, wait for tomorrow it'll be alright." The theme song of this week is Dare you to move by Switchfoot and it is one of my all time favorites. I hope you enjoy these songs.
