I'm 20 years old. I feel like i'm coming to a major turning in my life. Some things I'm doing now are; defining my political values, trying to grow into a relationship with God, deciding where i'm going to (hopefully) finish college and preparing to move out on my own.
This point is, to me, this is the one place in my life so far where i can make a massive life-altering mistake. I can also make a choice that i can make one of the best choices i'll ever make.
I just hope that God will help me make the right choices.

Do your best and things will simply fall in place. It's hard to believe but it is true. I learned the hard way. i used to stress over everything, now I just do my best and things happen. I found my happiness after going through a lot for a good 8 years. Love and respect yourself, be good to others, be honest, follow your heart and always do the best you can. Good luck with everything and welcome to life!Posted 06-26-2008 at 12:39 PM by gomedsea

I must say I'm at a similar position in life as well, only I'm 19. I know exactly what you mean by making one decision that can make or break you. I'm debating a huge decision which is moving 800 miles from home. It sure can be stressful.
Hang in There, that's what I'm trying to do.Posted 06-26-2008 at 03:46 PM by JoshB

This perspective may help... I really think there are more than one "right choices" a person can make in regards to many major decisions... where to go to college, what career suits you, what job, where to live, even more than one person you can live happily and faithfully married to. When you think of it that way, if you agree with that perspective, I hope it eases your mind.
People who sit still, who are afraid to act, are the ones I worry about. When we move forward, go with our gut instinct or good feelings about something, that's the way to do it. You'll find out if it was a good decision for you or not, and if not, then just switch gears. I think the marriage decision is the only one that you have to be more certain about than the rest.
I wish you the best. You're at a great time of life. Enjoy it...Posted 07-01-2008 at 08:16 PM by emeraldsky

Alan I think it's awesome that u r so young and so involved with what is going on in the world. There are people 2 X ur age that still aren't that aware. You will make the right decisions u have a good head on ur shoulders. Sounds to me ur parents did a terrific job at raising such a precocious young man. I wish u the best of luck with everything oh and BTW what are u studying to become?Posted 07-15-2008 at 11:51 AM by AnnaGrrrrrl

One of the beautiful things in life it that is very true that there can be more than one right answer. Long ago a man name James wrote a lot about liberty. Be thankful for the everyday blessings and opportunities. God does not micro manage our lives. I have a friend that never married because God did not find her a husband. I don't now how to tell her it's not God's fault. He gave her freedom and she did not use it. You are on the right road just stay of sober mind and you will get to your destination in life.Posted 07-16-2008 at 02:12 PM by Nomadicus

The fact that you are, at the age of 20, reflecting upon your direction in life tells me that you will do just fine. As a non-traditional student in a four year University, I can tell you that there are so many young people your age who cannot see beyond the next party. Just keep your eye on the prize.
Remember, God helps those who help themselves.Posted 08-17-2008 at 01:20 PM by Kele

Transitioning into manhood. Some type of rite of passage that you are going through. At least its not the Middle Passage. Think of the struggle of others, less, fortunate,
caught in the rapture of destiny. I am all to familiar with life altering moves. As someone stated earlier, you are aware therefore you have an advantage. Many are wandering aimlessly.Posted 10-23-2008 at 06:43 PM by Tobefrank
