The memoirs of a typical good-girl

Some 'Observations'

#1: I'm starting to wonder what my purpose is here.

I've been thinking that what I do in life won't really matter when I'm gone. The earth is 4.54 million years old based on scientific method, whereas in the bible it's 6,000 years.

I'm a very religious person so of course I would love to think it truly is the second answer, but for just about everyone else I know... it's 'all about science'.

So for me, it's the type of question that I just try to ignore because it makes my head hurt. Sort of like the 'Which came first, the chicken or the egg?' kind of thing.

Anyways, here's my point:

#2: Theoretically, I'm just a nothing. A mere 'speck'. Just a small part in the earth's vast and extensive civilizations that just come and go through history. No one ever giving any thought to the people of lesser importance. The non-famous, the lame, the crippled, the ugly, even just the random passer byers you see on the streets...they all make up one big group. They're just like background music in a favorite song. No one really pays any mind to it, so why is it even there?

If you think about it, it really does matter.
Or at least, to me it does.
