What's going on, world? Two blogs in one day, after a near 4 month lay off..well I've allowed a lot to build up in my life and just want to, you know, express them to sort of get them off of my mind, chest, and heart. No names though because that's how stress becomes a much greater factor and also some items may concern my family and I can't simply just go dropping names with them because that's disrespectful.
This school year so far has been a very testy one, with the adjustment of becoming more independent, and directing my life in the path that I see fit. At times, I get too anxious for things and that leads to complications with them and as I'm stepping back and looking over these last couple months, I still wouldn't have done anything different because in life, you have to take the good with the bad in order to truly develop into your own, because (1) if you think things are always going to be good, then how will you address adversity that you will inevitably face and (2) if you allow the negative things in your life to simply overtake you, then how will you ever learn from your mistakes and from the mistakes of those around you?
Throughout our lives, people put us through plenty of drama and hurt but rather then being upset with these individuals and placing an unnecessary burden on our shoulders, simply forgive them because we are all imperfect human beings attempting to be like our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, so how can we judge others but not want to be judged for our own sins? I've had a difficult time grasping that but it's becoming more and more clear to me as I sit back and reflect because I realized that I pray each and every morning that God forgives me for my trespasses and those that have trespass against me and the real life application is just as important as simply reciting it each morning...
It's plenty of people in my life and that I've simply seen before that cannot let go of their past and it simply weighs them down. I simply suggest that if that applies to you, just let that go because that no longer represents who you are as a person. Let that demon go and allow God to direct you into what He has planned for you.
Yesterday is History, Tomorrow is a Mystery, Today is the Present so that's a Gift to me...Many have probably heard that before but it's something that we sometimes need to remind ourselves of, me included. Don't allow your past to dictate your present, and don't overlook your present in haste for the future...
There have been plenty of issues within my own family and this Thanksgiving featured a smaller audience then I'm used to and that was plenty hard to deal with but as I just stated, I simply need to focus on those that I have available to me and simply know that when it's time for my other family members to be returned to me then it will happen according to God's Will.
As always, these are just my thoughts but I hope that by revealing my thought process some that I have helped you with your own issues somewhat...
God Bless....PromoDave Signing Out...
