Can you imagine loosing your vision? Anytime you loose your senses it makes you uncomfortable and throws you off track. It also heightens another sense. When you meet new people, try new things and new career paths. We naturally hope for the best. When things change or do not change the way we desire we tend to focus on that change. We feel a lose of control. We may have had some expectations and they may not all have gotten fulfilled. Sometimes we look for changes in people that never occur. It is natural to be positive but sometimes its hard when you have had negative experiences and it is hard to trust others. Personally, I have learned to cast my check (concerns) to the Lord. It is like giving your bill to your Father. He will always have your back. I do not have to force or figure it out. I may think about it, talk about it but I have to stay on my course. If I fail I will learn and try again but with better decisions. We may get caught up in the things of this world but sometimes it is not worth it. You are your own best friend. When I leave my home I compliment myself. I look around me and I thank God for the abundance.
Let me get real for a minute. I desire a family. It was always a dream. However, I keep kissing frogs. I know all men are not frogs and there is a prince somewhere. I am learning to keep my emotions on a shelf as a dear friend advised and my mother. You know when the situation is not sent from Heaven. I analyze a little and then back away. It takes me a minute sometimes because it is all dressed up and full of pretty things that make my eyes stretch but in the end I know I will experience deep disappointment if I keep going on that path. No matter what people tell me I have to look out for myself and love me. I may desire family but I have no control of with who or when. I had to learn that frogs are good listeners and manipulate and like to stick their chest out and boost their ego at the expense of a precious princess. I have learned to avoid all that and be okay with me.
When you think situations turn sour it is okay. It is for our protection. That was just not for you. No need to waist energy being upset because others are not where we think they should be. Or, even when you have not gotten that promotion on the job that you feel you deserve because there is a beautiful hidden reason. Be thankful anyway. Shrug it off. So much happens and we cannot figure it out. All that should be, happens at a perfect time. Your season will come but prepare and enjoy yourself before it does.
