It's so hard to plan for anything when the factors keep changing.
Which is the point, I guess.
There is no magic equation for "being good" or "doing good" because no matter how well you plan, or no matter how many variables you factor in, everything can change in a second. I can't plan a "righteous day" out and make a roadmap of how I'll respond to every situation because I just can't possibly know what situations will throw themselves across my poorly lit, overgrown path.
But all this planning and preparation is just horribly misplaced anyway, because I'm just using it to try and be "good," not trying to get to know God.
Why can't I remember that the point is not to be good?!?!?
