"Trust me"

I am going to focus on the promises given to me and know that I will get to the other side. Life's storms will not faze me. I'm ready to empty myself in order to be filled up. Something new is happening all the time. I am not the same as I was yesterday. This is my season to prepare, and press in until things turn around. 

Knowing vs. Believing

At times I sense that the road ahead of me is so long and difficult and I don't feel like anyone is truly walking beside me. However, I know that this is a lie and this is because my perception has been warped - but have I chosen to believe this lie? I am still in the process of learning to see myself through vision eyes and knowing that I am actually accepted for just who I am. There's a load of information in my head but I struggle with experiencing it and making it my reality. Sometimes when I am trying to communicate I am at a loss for words or it's difficult for me to process my thoughts into words. There may be many things I want to say but I just can't spit it out. Then again, I think about why my words would be significant, why would they be worth hearing, would they even benefit the other person? However, I find it kind of strange that sometimes when I attempt to explain things to others I am quite wordy and like to include every little detail so I do jump back and forth between the two extremes of keeping quiet when I don't think I have anything important to say or saying too much when I do begin to talk. Even as I am typing this I feel like my sentences are getting way too long and I can't decide when to cut them off! I don't really know what the main point I'm trying to get at is but I guess I just have this constant battle of the mind that I must overcome. And nobody said it was gonna be easy.

Sometimes when resolving a conflict you need to remember that having the relationship is more important than being right.

I am determined to make good use of my time this year. No more wasting time by doing nothing or surfing the internet while I could be doing something productive. It is difficult to get back into the old school routine but I know it will be a great accomplishment for me once everything is done. Therefore, I'm going to keep my eyes focused on the finish line and begin with the end in mind.

School is starting in 2 days; I'm not ready. But I guess you can never really be ready for anything as I mentioned in one of my previous posts. I've mentioned numerous times to a few of my friends that I've decided to be antisocial this year and not talk to people at school and basically just go to class and leave. However, I know in the back of my mind that that is not really the way to go. I just hate the process of building new friendships and relationships as it takes a long time to actually get to know someone. In order to have a true relationship you have to put in so much time and effort and I would hate to see everything I put in go to waste if things don't work out in the end. I tend to judge quickly and I would say this is because of my fear of being disappointed and fear of trusting. Well, I am ready confident that I will be able to conquer these fears and not let them govern my relationships. I need to take captive of my negative thoughts and flood them with truth.
