when nothing goes right, keep going... · 3:01am Mar 7th, 2013
job...no job
housing...no housing
help and support...well, you thought, but...no.
what are you supposed to do when, you are doing what you are supposed to be doing, but it doesn't work?
a short 2 month hesitant visit turns into a long and lost half year, unwanted, way-to-long extention...with no way out...yet.
yet...still optimistic...hopeful.
guess not all is lost...so not all is bad.
better to fight than to surrender and succumb to the environment that engulfs you.
sorry, but...all I can think about are our troops in less than comfortable situations...fighting.
guess I don't have much to bitch about, when you look at it like that, huh?
there are people who are starving and dying.
when you can't make sense of anything in your path, you do the best you can just to get thru to another day...
just to do it all again...Perseverance!
i guess that's the lesson for me to learn...Perseverance.
but never make the mistake...Perseverance is never acceptance.
that would be surrenderance...succumbing to ones environment.
Dear Jesus, please be with us as we walk thru are days...trying to get to where we are going.
especially on the days when we have no idea where we are going or even how we are going to get there...
*SIGH*
remember to keep smiling, because someone somewhere is fighting a battle.
and you just never know...who will be encouraged and strengthened by it...
Good Night...Be Bless!!!
God bless.
I'm always wishing I could be someone else instead of focusing on changing my own path, and what I never stop to think about is that everyone has flaws, no one's life is perfect, and in top of it all, no one is ever satisfied. So no matter who I'd be at any given moment, my natural response would be to want more, want something new or better and to achieve it in a way that would take the least amount of effort possible. I feel that the only way anyone can achieve real happiness is through acceptance and, as you mentioned, perseverance.

Oh my gosh. I did it again...
I made someone else's problem about me. Ugh, sorry about that, Joseph's mom.
There's always someone who has worse issues than you. ALWAYS.

...Your Fine...REALLY!!!

I believe we can always learn from others...even if they are thru others trials and tribulations.
sometimes it's just about shifting perspective, just a little bit, enabling you to see a completely new and different pic!
that's all...

I read a story once that went something like this...
if everyone were to put their problems in a pile and divide them equally...everyone would be better off taking their own problems and leaving...
everyone's problems are just that...their own...meaning that no matter how someone else would deal with them or how hard or easy it would be to deal with another's problems...you can't...all you have is what is right in front of you...you're pain, triumph's, hard work, decisions in life...they are what they are...for better or for worse...yours.
as i look at allllllllllllllll the mistakes i have made in life and the reprocussions those mistakes have caused me...i would never trade those for another's. i believe one day, i will have to give an account for my life...what i did and didn't do. i can stand in that...
