Things I Learned Today

1. Old people are old and wise and you should listen to them. No matter how old you are and no matter how old they really are, they have been there, done that, and lived to tell you how not to do it! So listen!

2. All of the problems we think we have are made bigger right between our ears!

3. We should trust ourselves more. We’ve made it this far, why would we go off the deep end now?

4. Fears are big, but we can’t let them take control. When you are loosing your grip on the perch look at #10.

5. One day you may look in the mirror and say; “Damn, I look good, but I’m still sad.” Or we may look in the mirror and say; “Damn I look good!” (I’m not sure what I learned from that, but I remember it…)

6. Jesus Christ heals. At some point He will heal us all. Time may be involved, but we will heal.

7. In the end God will work it all out.

8. When the road ahead is going to be difficult, make sure you are surrounded by supportive, loving people! (Who are awesome and cool and wise!)

9. Good friends are more precious than gold. (Just relearned that one, I already knew it!)

10. It’s all going to be ok. (I relearned that one too. I have to keep relearning that one, but it’s true!)

overwhelmed

One of the most difficult weeks I can ever remember. Feeling totally overwhelmed...

Am I allowed to be honest on here, or is there a blog clause that says I have to pretend everything is ok?

I was talking to someone at church who brought up, letting others crash and burn, or trying to save them from the pain of it.  I said that we all crash and burn at some point, don't we?  This has truly been a crash and burn week for me. 

I wonder how long it will last.
