"you do it to yourself"...this is somewhat my motto in life...you have to be prepared for whatever comes with the decisions you have made...which pretty much sucks...i've made one decision lately that seemed so right...and actually i'm not sure that it was wrong but now i have to live with the results and although i think i'm right the results are proving to be bad...so this makes me wonder was i right or wrong in my actions...sometimes i have to wonder if there is ever going to be a time where everything just works out : )
which brings me to the next topic...one of the books i'm reading...Teri recently gave me a book called twentysomething....and the book is pretty much about the quarter life crisis and how pretty much your twenties suck...you've graduated from college and now what do you do...well you go to work...and then all of the sudden that degree isn't really what you wanted to do after all, but now you have bills that have to be paid (including student loans) and so goes life...and then on top of that you are dealing with relationship issues and the feeling of not belonging...and what i have to say is "thank God, i'm not the only one" : ) sometimes it hard to see past yourself and realize that these things are happening to other people...and the book mentioned that for some reason, we have it in our heads that we can do this by ourselves and that no one else is going through this so lets not talk about it...lets pretend that we are great with how everything is going...and i'm sure there are some that are very happy with everything and know exactly what they want but i'm glad to realize that i'm not the only who is in the life a lot of the time sucks phase...(not all the time, and actually i'm an optimist, and am pretty content although not always happy : )
then i'm reading mere christianity (i never read two books at once, but i am now)...i recommend this book to everyone...one of the things that has hit me in the last few chapters is that i don't have to be perfect...and even when i'm not i just have to try again...i know another one of those duh moments...God doesn't judge us on what we haven't accomplished but rather what we have accomplished and who He knows we are...this is very good news...
lets see anything else i can bore my readers with : )....oh yes...something that came to me also this weekend...i think i've had to much time to think : )...when a female gets married she picks friends to support her and be with her in this very happy moment...people to keep her sane in her moments of insanity...and this is great, but heres what i don't get...why is it that we don't do the same things when one of our friends is pregnant...to me, a kid seems to be a little bit of a bigger deal...and there is a lot more that goes into a kid...you would think you would want the same sort of support...i do realize that husbands or significant others are usually involved but thats one person...maybe i'm just talking out my ass and have no idea what i'm talking about : )
