Times are really hard out here. I feel like I am just staying afloat. I used to think that being an adult was the best thing in the world. When I was younger I couldn't wait to be grown. I thought I could do what I wanted to do it when I wanted to do it. I thought life would get easier. Little did I know...
If I could go back, I would definitely change some things. Some people that I have allowed in my life, I would never allow them in. There are others that I let go that I would do a better job of keeping them there. I would invest more. I would play a little more. I would do a lot of things differently, but there are some things that I would keep the same.
But as I live in today and get ready for tomorrow, I am just treading water. I found the thing that makes me happy, but reality of life sometimes gets in the way. Life's needs sometimes supersede life's wants. Things have to be trimmed. Can't go on many vacations. Christmas won't be as lavish. Some things like eating out, going to movies, getting the latest outfit have to be sacrificed to make sure the needs have been taken care of.
I have been in worst situations. God has always stayed there and gotten me through. That doesn't mean that during those trials I didn't start to doubt. But like my friend told me "you're a fighter". I am. So I continue to fight through this trial. It won't always be this way. I am very blessed to have a job, health and people in my life that I love and care for.
So know that I won't be "blue" forever. It only lasts a short period "Thank God". But I appreciate my "true friends" that already know this, give me a kiss on the forehead or a big hug, and let me know that they are there just for listening. I love and appreciate that so much. That is the best way to get through a trial in my opinion.
