I am learning so many things in college, but mostly I am learning about myself. I am learning how far I can actually push myself toward the breaking point without going over. I am also going over the breaking point. I am pushing and being pushed past my limits physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually and I'm not sure I like it any more. I like the new definition of my limits, but exactly how far is too far?
I am becoming an independent person, but I am still so dependent on other people. I'm not necessarily talking about my parents...I mean my friends and mentors. I see my coaches everyday and I have really grown to love them. They talk about everything with us from softball to school to social lives. I love my friends dearly and as busy as I have been, I realize how much I depend on them everyday. It's hard not to see them all the time.

Kate,
Consider this:
I know people who are completely independent...and I don't like them. Independence is great, but is only a path to becoming interdependent. When we can become interdependent, we begin to realize our value in society and can better serve through God and his son, Jesus Christ. Our goal shouldn't be to become independent, but rather to become interdependent...and that takes a little time to learn and understand. Didn't God say:
"Be still, and know that I am."
Sometimes it's hard to be still. When that happens we become confused and lose focus. Learn to "Be still" and to become interdependent. I love you.
