I was sitting by my pool just now, over-thinking every aspect of my life. Friends, guys, guyfriends, school, my future. I looked at the water, and got the strangest urge to jump in.
Before I could stop myself, I stripped down to my underwear and did so. Dove in.
Moral of the story? Sometimes life is better when you don't think at all.
This morning in my devo, I read Matthew 6:25. "Do not worry about your life."
And do you know what I spent all day doing? Yep. Worrying.
Two of my greatest character flaws, right there. I think too much, and as a result, I worry. I swear I'm going to have wrinkles by the time I'm twenty. Whether it's reading too much into what someone's said to me, or wondering why certain things haven't been said. Ridiculousness.
I can chalk a little of this up to PMS, but 95% of it is just regular me.
I help others look on the bright side every day, but my own bright side doesn't get much attention. So I'm changing that. Now. Today. God's letting me live, and He never asked me to question the particulars.
See you on the sunny side.
