Some days I feel as if I am a kindergartener at school for the very first time. I feel as if the teacher is trying to teach me letters, numbers, words, how to write, how to spell; sometimes I get what she is teaching me and other times I haven't a clue. I have realized something and that realization seems to occur quite often...I don't know much, and I am still learning. But I believe that I am a masterpiece in progress. I think that we all are; we are blank canvases in front of our painter, who holds out the paint brush ready to help turn the blank canvas into a masterpiece. Turning something plain and small into something beautiful and enthralling, building the canvas to it's fullest potential. Even though I am 21 years old and a sophomore in college I have those days and times when I feel so small, so little, so young and so ignorant to the world. I have been reading an incredible book called "Love Stargirl" it is the sequel to "Stargirl" written by Jerry Spinelli. It is a beautiful story of a girl who calls herself Stargirl. She is quite the inspiration, and I hope I can be more like a stargirl. But as I was reading it this quote stood out to me:
"...you're sitting in a classroom of billions, trying to learn the same lesson as the rest of us..."
I feel that that is so true. That we are all here to learn and to grow to our fullest potentials. We are learning how to be our best selves whatever that may be. I feel that the more I take what I learn and take the things God puts into my life and apply it into my life I am growing and learning and drawing closer to my fullest potential; or closer to that beautiful masterpiece. I feel that we can all become master pieces no matter the circumstance.
'Cause life is for learning and what better way to do it then with all the people around you and especially with a loving Father in Heaven who is the master of all creations and beauty.
