Making some changes

I want to be more than I am today. I want to walk confidently into each day--to face each day on purpose.

I feel called to do a sort of "fast" from spending money on entertainment. We are so addicted to constantly being entertained in our society. I don't want to be that way. I think our parents had it right by keeping it simple. Why do we constantly feel the need to seek out every kind of entertainment we can possibly imagine? Why do we feel the need to spend our money aimlessly on such things that don't last but a few hours or so?

Don't get me wrong...I love movies and music and being entertained as much as the next person. I am just asking some hard questions of myself to see my motivation behind my constant need to be entertained. I spend a lot of money each month on entertainment. Movies, concerts, shows of all kinds, etc.

I have decided to make a conscious effort to dig deeper to find the motivations behind my desires. Why do I do the things I do? I know it's not reasonable to expect to never seek out any form of entertainment EVER, but for now I am on a fast until I come across something that I definitely want to do, and make sure I have the money to do that thing.

Making some changes with my money and the way I spend my time. Finally!

Here we go...
