This week has been one of those weeks. One that hits you hard and you realise...my life is not meant to be 'this hard'. Seriously I have had a HUGE wake-up-call. Can I really complain about all I have in my life? The easy answer is NO. I am sooooo blessed I feel sick. I have spent my week running from here to there worrying about everything and in the end, none of that really matters. I am blessed. I have a house to live in, food on my table and clothes on my back. My children are happy and I have a loving husband and friends that care. I am blessed. I have become a grump. Really. It takes alot to get me to smile and feel the joy when my kids jump in bed in the morning. I just want to roll over and go back to sleep. I guess I don't want to face life some days. Some days things are JUST TOO HARD.
Well today I realised. 'snap out of it'. You have SO MUCH to give and so much to be given. Just CHOOSE the sweet life. CHOOSE to let life deliver you the sweet sticky reality that you have it so good and that things could be worse. CHOOSE to dance and sing instead of sitting idle and crying. CHOOSE to get up and have a go at things you thought were impossible and CHOOSE to see the joy in life not the heartache.
Things are going to change around here. I BELIEVE things are possible.
I BELIEVE that we have a choice to live this life to the fullest potential and that is exactly what I intend to do. What do you CHOOSE to BELIEVE?
Thanks for this beautiful post :) It's so easy to get bogged down by what isn't going well, and life is just plain hard sometimes!!! - but we all have choices, and it's great to remind ourselves that we can choose to be happy - or at least to get out of bed and keep going even if we don't feel the joy. Today I am just so happy that God loves me the way he does, and I'll always be his daughter!
ReplyDeleteThis is so true. Life is fragile but we must be reminded that it is a journey xxx
