We have all heard this saying, but have we ever really thought about the truth behind it? I'm taking a Seminar Positive Psychology, and we have been discussing the difference between a "flow experience," and the "8 to 5 mind." The flow experience is when you are totally consumed with what you are doing. It is in those experiences that you lose track of time, and you are fully in to what it is that you are doing. When in the "8 to 5 mind" you are fully aware of every minute that passes and you are constantly watching the clock.
When thinking about my college experience to this point, I would definitely say that it has been a flow experience. It seems like only yesterday that my parents were unloading my things into my first dorm room and driving away. Now, I realize that I have been in college for nearly 2 years now. I will be a Junior next year, and every minute of this experience has flown. I have to stop and remind myself to savor every minute of my college experience, because it will quickly be over.
God has big plans, and I can't wait to see what is next.
