As I sit here celebrating my 26 years on this earth today I find myself at the most content place Ive ever been in my life. The past six years have been a whirlwind of emotion, pain and growth. Ive found that being caught up in a circle of people can shut me out from what is happening around me. Ive found that putting hope in people will only lead you down a road of disappointment and heartache. Ive found that people can really suck sometimes. But, Ive also found God in EVERY situation, eventually. I can be stubborn and do things my way only to fall to my face in surrender in the end. You see, Ive found that my life wasnt meant to be spent stressing myself out about hanging out with the right group or being seen with the right people or saying the right thing all the time. My life was meant to spend content with what God has given me and my family. Stopping and counting my blessings. Turning my face upwards in time of struggle instead of posting it on facebook looking for likes or for a friend to show they care. You see, in the end, I need God and my family. Those two things keep me going. Those two things make me feel safe and secure. Everything else I thought I needed to be successful or fullfilled somehow seem to be a distant memory. Being a child of God is my calling.... And I plan to look ahead, not behind.
