Eternity. 
 It's honestly not something I think of too often.  I watched a video today that is below this post that changed my perspective.  Not a lot of things are that powerful.  And the video isn't "blow you out of the water" spectacular.  It's simple.  Francis Chan has a simple idea he is trying to get across. 
 I'm going to be completely honest here and that is kinda hard because I feel stupid for feeling the way I do sometimes.  Often I stress about the stuff of this world.  What I have, how I look, how others see me and my family and my house and my blah blah blah.  Sometimes I actually worry that I will miss out on something or lose friends if I'm not of this world.  How lame right?  Well I told you I was gonna be honest.  I need to be more like Paul in the sense that I keep my eyes forward on the finish line. 
"I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."
Philippians 3:14
