Truth is, sometimes life just kinda sucks.. Now before you go thinking that this is going to be a negative post, just remember who you are dealing with here. I am not generally a negative person, so stay with me for a minute...
Have you ever heard someone say something like.. "If you think your life is bad, look around. Someone always has it worse." Or if something bad happens to someone else, you look at their situation and determine that now your life is in perspective? I have and I have. I always try to look at things and find that silver lining. (Notice I said "try".) It's not always easy though.
I live my life knowing that I am truly blessed! My world revolves around my amazing kids! They are my life for sure! But it doesn't mean I don't get hurt! I trust people a little too much and yeah you guessed it, I get hurt a lot. I am one of those crazy people who want to believe that people in general are good. I want to believe that if you say I will be there, you mean it! If you say I'll do it, you do it! If you say I love you, you show it! To me that doesn't seem like such a tall order. Each one of those things has a very simple solution to avoid any and all confusion... Are your ready for me to drop some major knowledge on you? OK here goes.. the answer to the worlds problems ( ok not really, but it would certainly help a lot). If you won't be there, don't say it! If you won't do it, don't say you will! AND most importantly.. if you are not willing to show someone that you love them, DON'T SAY YOU DO! I challenge anyone to counter my solution.. because I absolutely do not believe that anyone can argue against it.
What I have learned is that when I do look around I realize that there are things that others have had to deal with that if I had to deal with, I would end up in a corner somewhere, in the fetal position, crying. On the other hand people on the outside looking in see some of the things I have had to go through and feel the same way. What's hard for me to deal with would be a walk in the park to someone else. God gives me the strength to deal with the things I have to deal with. When those little things happen that cause me to believe that life kinda sucks sometimes, if I go to God, I make it through- AND yes I find the silver lining.
If someone hurts me, I just make adjustments and keep going. If life seems unfair, I just keep my head up and wait for my turn. It's just how you do things. Life is not always cakes and roses (or in my case wings and football).. nope sometimes is actually does make you feel like you want to give up. People do things to you that break your heart. There are a lot of selfish folks out there. Shoot, at times I am one of them, but you just keep going. God will never give you a mountain with out preparing you for the climb and giving you the appropriate gear!
I am about to go take a walk around the block to clear my head..
Don't forget to appreciate today, Mother's Day, May 13, 2012, it's the only one you will ever get!
Wish me LOVE because I certainly wish it for you! <3
