Spectacular Condensation

Hello my fabulous bloggers. I hope you are having an excellent day, and things are going swell.

Things are fairly good here; I finally got a call a back from the restaurant I worked at last summer, and I will finally be working again this week. As much work as work really is, it is something that I enjoy doing, just because it gives me a purpose and gives me something to do. Although it's usually pretty easy to get stressed out.

Stress is something that I have thankfully escaped from these last two weeks; it's been relatively stress free. And I've done a lot of thinking, and a lot of reflection the last two weeks, and a lot of finding out who I am.

Deep, right?
But I'm serious. Finding yourself is important. If you don't know who you are, do you really know anyone? And you never stop finding yourself, it's something that keeps growing, keeps changing, keeps being molded until the day you leave Earth. As a person, you are always growing in one way or another.

That can be good growth, but sometimes it can be backwards growth. The last two weeks of school, I found myself growing backwards, growing back into a shell, becoming scared of who I was and who I would be.

It's something that you have to face head-on; you can't ignore it and hope that it disappears. To grow positively, you have to take positive action, but you also have to look at the negatives in your life. You have to figure out what in your life is an obstacle or a negative force, and as much as it may hurt, cut that out of your life. Sacrifice something that is comfortable for something that is good, spiritually, physically, and mentally, is always hard....but in the end, it's always worth it.

If you are having a hard time, I am praying for you. And if it helps, I believe in every single one of you. YOU are strong enough to make the change in your life that you need...but under one condition. You are only strong enough when God is the one in control, when you hand Him everything.

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." John 14:27.

God will give you peace, and you may not understand it immediately. But don't be afraid of the future, especially when He is in control. He will guide you to the person you are supposed to be.

I love you all, you spectacular condensation.
