Finding Center

During high school I remember my peers always talking (or should I say complaining) about how their teachers give them so much homework and act like geometry or European History or whatever class was going to be our life. But really, how would we ever need to use that information. Ever.

Now I'm a Junior in college, and most of my classes are in my major. And now not only do my professors act like this will be my life... but so do my peers. I realized it this week, and it was somewhat of a shock. Sure, I like Anthropology, it's interesting but I don't want it to be the center of my life... economically or mentally. Part of that, I think is because I do have a wide range of interests (hence Anthropology in the first place) but second because I want the Gospel of Jesus Christ to be at my center, and with that my family. Period, the end. I'll keep taking Anth classes, I'll keep writing, and blogging, and reading but I never want any of those things to be my center.
