"Unarmed and Outnumbered but Far From Dead"

  I went on a journey to embark on new endeavors and to run from a relentless evil that has tried to destroy my life many times before. One night along my journey I fell asleep under the stars only to wake up disoriented and in pain. My leg was swollen and I realized I had been bitten by a poisonous snake. I called out in hope of hearing a familiar voice but no one was there. As my vision cleared I found a jagged rock and managed to cut my wound spilling warm blood and poisonous venom over the cold ground. I gathered myself and stood up, I limped away from the stoic forest in which I was sleeping and into a sunny warm meadow.
    I took a minute to bask in the warm sun trying to warm my cold limbs. I called out but once again silence. I began walking further out into the meadow towards the surrounding hills. As I approached the hills I began to hear what sounded like thunder. I looked around at the sky but there were no clouds in sight, then the ground began to tremble as the sound grew closer. I stood looking fuzzily over towards the hills. Afraid, injured and unarmed I began to realize the evil I had been running from had caught up to me. This time I called out once again, but to God. I did not hear an answer but I felt a gentle breeze blow through the meadow. A sense of peace and renewed spirit came over me. I felt his presence and realized that I was brought to this time and place to finally face the evil that has been haunting me. I looked to the hills with confidence, my vision and mind clear as if all the poison eluded my body. As clarity befriended me once again I knew what needed to be done.
  It is time to fight once again! I began running towards my enemy to hold my ground and to put an end to the fear of the unknown. I may be bloody, injured, and afraid but I will never avoid a fight when it comes my way. Today has come for a reason. Today has a purpose. Today has meaning. Today has given me life so I can live it, fight for it, and overcome what happens! Today has given me a chance to fight in order to see tomorrow. Shall I merely sit and be overwhelmed and overtaken by my enemy, or will I stand up against my enemy and face it with an intensity that would make hell tremble? This battle may mean I will be unarmed and outnumbered, but my foe does not know that I am far from dead! I will fight with every ounce of energy I have until my last dying breath.

"What do you really want Andrew?"

"What do you really want Andrew?" Honestly I don't think I know right now, and even if I did why do you keep asking me? I always have the same cliche answers for you, "a career that will provide a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction but will also give me options in life, a girlfriend/wife that is loving and trustworthy, the ability to pay off my debt and begin saving money." They are things that are constantly invading and enveloping my thoughts. I know they are things within your power to give, but I can't help to feel they are not things you want me to have quite yet.
