Past Fitz slapping Now Fitz in the head...

If you've noticed, this has been the first update in somewhere around 5 years. Yes. I've been busy.

It was odd reading what insight I had 5 years ago. How is it that I could have been smarter in 2007 than I am right now in 2011? Did I not graduate from college? Did I not start in on a work force? Did I not travel to various countries and see various things? How did I get dumber in that process?

And yet, here I am, reading my past blogs and wondering in awe at Past Fitz. What would she have told me? I'm pretty sure she would have sat me down to explain that experience does not equate intelligence. And after I remark in a fairly sarcastic fashion (as I do when I'm defensive), she would probably slap me in the back of my head and say, "Stop being YOU! You are so far inside yourself, there's no way of ever getting out alive! Knock it off and you might have a chance of survival. Until then, you're screwed."

Ah, to know thyself.

She's right, you know. Past Fitz. She's so self assured of God and His game plan. That He has one. That He's got it in the works as we speak. That we need not freak out. I'm pretty sure I could have convinced her of some financial actions that would put us in a better stand right now. But between the two of these nuggest of knowledge-- I'll take God's Game Plan any day.
