Motives

I agree that we're approaching the limit of our comraderie, as we've experienced it thus far, and that it's nothing to be feared. However, it seems to me that the convergence and divergence that's occuring is not dependent on what exactly we'll be doing, but why we plan to do it. We all chose to come together last summer with motives that were, I believe, innocent. What is it that we're seeking that motivates, and so justifies, the choices we're now making or, perhaps, have already made? I'm talking about college, specifically, not the mundane details that we've all been so bogged down in, but the essential decision between what we want now and what we were made for. I'm struggling with this question right now, and I know that others have been fighting the same fight. Ultimately, it's an internal choice that all of us will have to make of our own volition, without the advice or assistance of anyone else. Still, if we could share the choice(s) we're currently confronting, I think that we might discover a stronger reason to find comfort in knowing one another, a reason we can believe will last.

Right now, I find myself asking what exactly I really need to learn as well as I can. It was hard even to ask that question, because my heart was already whispering its reply - and I didn't like what it said. The hardest thing is, I guess, deciding to choose the good, without regard to unworthy concerns.
