So I asked friends and family and talked to myself for some advice
for my future and here is a good listing of opinions that I got. I’m so confused! It’s like I’m hearing different voices. Each of these “advice” seem to be sound.
Should I buy a house here in El Paso? / What should I do
with my housing condition?
Advisor 1: It doesn’t really matter what you do, either way
is fine. God will take care of you. What matters is that you worship God.
Advisor 2: You should move back Los Angeles and stay with
your dad. I know you care about privacy
but your dad is getting old. The rent is
free. He welcomes you. I know you might be afraid of him but I think
you are better prepared now. Plus, you
can also find a job there as well. As
for the church, remember that home church that you been to once? They were very nice. I’m sure you can rejoin them. Failing that, you can just find a church to
your liking. I’m sure there are
supernatural churches in LA.
Advisor 3: You should just stay in El Paso. You know the area, you know Fort Bliss. You can be more independent. You can talk to yourself and to God more and
more openly. Plus, you have your
supernatural church here.
Advisor 4: You should focus on three things only: God,
money, and a soulmate. Those are the
three things that make you happy. El
Paso has God, a little money, and probably a soulmate. Los Angeles can have God, more money, but it
might be harder to find a soulmate if you live with your parents.
Advisor 5: Just continue to stay where you are. Rent for now.
You are still uncertain about your future, whether you want to continue
school, go into trucking, go into the postal service, or stay at your call
center job. And, your Ignite church will
be moving, location unknown. Wouldn’t it
be nice to move right next to your church?
And, since you want to stay where you are, which is right next to UTEP,
perhaps you should go to school full-time.
Advisor 6: Same as above but go to school part-time and work
part-time. It’s important that you at
least have some income. It’s not good to
depend too much on your family and loans that you have to pay back.
Advisor 7: Buy the house.
You can rent out the house to other people and have an income
there. You can have more diversified
income. Plus, you have family support.
Advisor 8: You are already 28 years old. You’re running out of time to prepare
yourself. Just get established. Stay at your call center job, buy a house
here in El Paso, work full-time or part-time and be with God, and go to your
supernatural church. God will take care
of the rest.
Advisor 9: You know what?
Life is just too difficult. There
are too many stress, difficulties, regrets, and unknowns. I think you should just die and be with
God. The living will envy the dead.
Advisor 10: Quit your call center job. You should be working at a happy job, not a gloomy
job where you deal with negative people.
Find a happy job, anywhere, and stay there. Do a job that you like, for example
trucking. You say you can talk to God
and listen to your Christian music while you drive. Wouldn’t that be nice? And the paycheck isn’t too bad either.
Advisor 11: Stay in El Paso.
Your spiritual mentor already told you that you are living in the end
times. You need to be attending a
supernatural church. Just stay in El
Paso, do what you need to survive here, and worship God.
Advisor 12: Buy a house, don’t rent. Renting gives your money to the
landlord. Buying invests the money in
yourself. Plus, you can rent it out to
other people for extra money. Buy as soon
as possible. If you calculated the total
amount that you spent in rent, you would have been able to do a nice down
payment on a house already.
Advisor 13: Move to a cheaper place. If you buy, you have to pay the property tax,
which, as you calculated, is about $100-$150 a month. With that cost, it is better to just find a
cheaper place to rent for, say $200-300 a month with all utilities
included. You are paying about $400 a
month currently. Just bring it down to
$300 and you save $1,200 a year.
Advisor 14: If you buy the house, you can not only rent but
can help other people. If someone is in
need, they can stay for free and you can help them. Additionally, you can have a room *just* for
God, like a temple in the old times. Not
having a room distracts my relationship with God to a degree. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a room, where it
is completely dark, with maybe a candle, a cross, and spiritual decorations
around to set the atmosphere where you can spend an eternally there? That room can be your altar. I know your pastor said that is the old times
but it is still possible and I will still make sacrifices to God (personal
sacrifices).
Advisor 15: You don’t need a degree to do social work. You made a mistake. You should focus on helping yourself instead
of trying to save the world. Get a
second degree in a technology field and then apply for jobs in the Silicon
Valley area. Last I heard, there is a
huge demand for jobs. And you can be
happy; you will have a happy job.
There is a saying I made
myself that goes “If I don’t know what to do, I will worship You.”
