You were still happy.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p><p>&nbsp; &nbsp; \u201cWell, I love God. I pray and read my Bible every day. My problems are all God\u2019s problems, so that makes it easy to be happy.

And I love what I do, and I love you.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p><p>They wouldn\u2019t leave. It\u2019s like they wanted to take notes on the secret to happiness. I talked about baking with my husband, reading books, walking in the woods, loving God, and maybe fifty other ideas of how he could live his life including playing tennis, writing a novel, and serving his community.&nbsp;<\/p><p>It was precious and honest, but also desperate and sad.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-de8edf1 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"de8edf1\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c37ebf2\" data-id=\"c37ebf2\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0a396c2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0a396c2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">I remember, I was like Joe as a student--looking for role models.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7237e11 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7237e11\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4db2528\" data-id=\"4db2528\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ab472d2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ab472d2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>I remember feeling the same way as a student; I was desperate to learn how to build my adult life. I was looking for role models to teach me how to live a good life. I hungered for information on what to value, how to set life goals, and how to be happy. I spent time with professors because I wanted to learn not just about the course material, but also about material for becoming an adult.<\/p><p>It\u2019s been two decades since I graduated from the University of Virginia. I can still remember every professor or graduate student who taught me. I remember our office hour conversations as I tried to find meaning in my life. I remember searching out professors in coffee shops or the library just to ask questions about the possibilities for my future.\u00a0<\/p><p>I remember myself back then (spiritually seeking, depressed, confused, terrified about the future), so when a student comes to my office, intrigued by my faith in Jesus or asking existential questions, I take those questions seriously as opportunities God has orchestrated for me to guide students in their spiritual journeys.<\/p><p>Many times over the years, students have asked me about how to have a relationship with God, and I\u2019ve offered to explain how they, too, could know Jesus.\u00a0 I\u2019ve learned the power of simple and direct encouragement that can change the whole course of a student\u2019s life. I\u2019m always looking for that moment to encourage students who have lost hope, especially those who cannot imagine a future for themselves.\u00a0<\/p><p>Sometimes the questions students ask me do not, on the surface, seem like deeply spiritual questions, but I\u2019m coming to understand that most questions are, in fact, spiritual in some way or another.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><p>For example, Patrick shared that his favorite book was Steinbeck\u2019s East of Eden, but he couldn\u2019t tell me why he loved it so much. \u201cCan you tell me why I love it?\u201d That day, I explained to Patrick that he loves the allegory of a son searching for the love of a father his whole life. \u201cIt\u2019s the Biblical story of our need for a Heavenly Father\u2019s love.\u201d<\/p><p>Patrick wanted to hear more and more, and soon, I had a group of ten students coming to the coffee shop to talk about stories and Christian allegories and beauty.<\/p><p>They\u2019d even bring their terribly sappy love poems to share.\u00a0 And I listen. And I learn.\u00a0 And that helps make me happy too.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-8d48c77 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"8d48c77\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-81dcae4\" data-id=\"81dcae4\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7d1d43a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7d1d43a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>Heather Holleman<\/b><br>Penn State University<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\/*! elementor &#8211; v3.6.4 &#8211; 13-04-2022 *\/ .elementor-heading-title{padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title[class*=elementor-size-]&gt;a{color:inherit;font-size:inherit;line-height:inherit}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-small{font-size:15px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-medium{font-size:19px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-large{font-size:29px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xl{font-size:39px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xxl{font-size:59px} Why are you so happy?
