Insecure Acheivement
I can't sing, I can't dance
At music I simply don't stand a chance
I can't draw, nor can I make a work of art
I hardly ever finish what I start
Excellence is not found in sport for me
My name in lights I will never see
I'm your average joe who cannot act
With no known passion, and that's a fact
Nothing to die for, but everything for which to live
Plenty of soul, but not enough time to give
Lord, what is your purpose for me?
I feel I'm doomed to mediocrity
Not outstanding, no meaningful goals
Living day to day as I grow old
There's got to be a purpose for me
I cannot be doomed to mediocrity
Lord, what is your plan for me?
I know I'm not for mediocrity.
Sean.

Disclaimer: Do not try and counsel me, I'm no emo. Spend your time with Kylie from Gladstone, she needs it more than I.

Very insightful as usual. At the risk of sounding "counsel-ly" (just getting ready for my 2pm with Kylie), you seem to have listed all the areas in which you can be 'successful' in the world. God has the incredible ability of being able to work outside of singing, dancing, music, art, sport and drama. Stay open to His calling, go where He sends you and you'll lead a life better than you imagined. But you probably already knew that.

Dude... if i had poeticness in me then that is pretty much what id write... you kinda summed it all up there cos alot of the time i have a slight feeling that i might be meant to do something and then i just give up because i think im not good enough... i guess i just have to keep trusting that god has something out there thats right for me. Stay cool and dont WORRY! peace out bro

Lazy maybe, but not popular. That reminds me, update song time.
(To the tune of "I'm not missing you" by Stacie Orrico)
We're not going through motions,
We're just kinda hoping you'll update (we are missing you)
You're usually quite open
And we simply aren't coping because, we've got no updates
We are just barely hanging on,
We really hate to see you gone,
This time's no different,
We don't care about the distance,
We just want updates
See you tomorrow mate!!
