I wonder

I wonder about life quite often.
I wonder why I'm here or
I wonder what tomorrow looks like.
I wonder why my hair's not auburn and then 
I wonder why I've always wanted red hair.  
I wonder about my worth and 
I wonder if I'll change the world someday.
I wonder if I even harbor that capability. 
I wonder why the rain cleans the world after we make messes.
I wonder why we make messes in the world and 
I wonder why I want to clean up messes in all the ways that the rain can't.
I wonder why I love the Earth so much.
I wonder if my words can help the world love the Earth too.
I wonder if I will see the world and
I wonder if someone will see the world with me because
I wonder if I will ever get married.
I wonder if anyone will ever like me enough to put up with me for that long. So
I wonder why I'm single, but then
I wonder why I'd ever want to share my life or the dog I plan on having. (In reality,
I wonder why I truly do desire to share so badly.)
I wonder if it will be just me and that potential canine or
I wonder if I will have babies.
I wonder why my parents love me so much.
I wonder if my love can move my children to change the world when I'm gone and
I wonder how I'll go.  Will it be a quiet farewell or a grand finale? And even though
I wonder where I'll end up,
I wonder why I worry so much. Because
I trust, I love, and I believe in the One that many wonder about. No, of Him
I am certain.
I wonder why I've ever wondered.  I suppose it's simply that
I wonder what He has in store. 
I wonder why life is this unending and unsolvable secret, but then I listen:
"Breathe.
Whatever happens, happens.
Whatever happens will be beautiful." 
I wonder if I can change the world. 
I wonder if He'll let me. 
I wonder about this long string of wondering. Above all,
I wonder if my hair will ever be red.
