"It was very good..."

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain

He understands the cry of my spirit. The longing that I reveal to so few. Each fiber of my being absolutely yearns to get out- to experience. How much of that adventure can I desire before it becomes coveting what I do not have? Should I simply settle within the season in which I find myself, and not "explore... dream... discover"?

I went with family to watch Avatar yesterday, and it ignited the fire in me all the more to see worlds that I have yet to see. Pandora, for some, stoked depression. "Our world will never be that good. That perfect. That beautiful." I'm sorry but... are you blind? My Father is not captured within human limitations as is James Cameron. Just imagine what He is capable of creating. It didn't bring me down in the least bit. Instead of watching creativity across the big screen, I want to view it at it's peak.

Sit under a sky delicately painted with His stars. Watch a blazing sun rise out of the early morning sky. Stand so close to the edge of a cliff that I can feel my heart beating in my throat. Feel the rush of water below my feet and know... my God created this. My passionate God was inspired by a black void to create something so spectacular that it steals my breath. Not simply in Ohio. There's an entire world out there that my God made beautiful with a word.

"God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day." -Gen. 1:31

Question

I wonder how much of a routine person one can be without becoming boring. What do you think? Are you a routine individual or more on the spontaneous side? Do you prefer to spend time with one type of person over the other?
