Thoughts from a Conundrum

an enigma wrapped in a riddle dressed in a conundrum

Searching

For the last couple months(since Sept. or before really), i had a goal: to meet new people. I wanted to make not necessarily new friends, but ones to add to existing ones. Alas, i have totally failed in my attempts. Apparently i am inept at meeting new people. I had a conversation tonite with a friend who also wanted to meet new people. I figure i need a dummie book-u know, 'Meeting new people for Dummies' or 'Making New Friends for Dummies', since i'm at a lose. Where does one go to meet people? I'm not about to go bar hopping, since that's not what i'm about, and the thought of church hopping for that purpose seems kinda wrong. (Though there are a few churches i would like to try once-more for curiousity of service) but i digress.... My job also doesn't exactly give me the opportunity to foster relationships. When you jump schools and never know where you'll be working, it doesn't help anything, nor do the sometimes unfriendly/ignoring staff people. I think between this, and job uncertainty for summer and fall, it's becoming hard not to fall into discontentment. I know God has some wonderful plan for my life and hasn't shared with me yet, i just need some patience.
