real life...

we were just chatting on the forum over at devine memories a few weeks ago about blogs. someone mentioned that it seems like you always read about how good life is and how great things are. most everyone agreed that it was a bit depressing sometimes because you are having problems in your life and then it seems like it's rosey for everyone else. we all know that's not the case. it's just really hard to keep that perspective at times. i've heard somewhere, that you never know what goes on behind closed doors. i've also heard that if we all put our problems in a huge pile to pick from, we would all go back for our own. isn't that the truth! i know i think many times why do i have to deal with all this? yet then you talk to someone or see someone that has problems you are grateful you don't have.

now to the point of this post. i thought i would post the real feelings of things going on. so if you don't want to read on then just skip it!

the past few weeks i keep telling myself okay it's really time to get on track. i really want to accomplish so much. so i need to really get in gear. there just are a lot of things i'm wanting to do. things that are along improving my life style and hopefully my families. these things would include: eating healthier, eating out less, excercising, daily prayer, daily scripture reading, cleaning and reorganizing and the list could go on! so do you just ever feel so overwhelmed with all you want to do and you feel like you'll never accomplish it all and at any minute you just might drown? well sometimes that happens to me. i do really well with a few of the things and then something else slacks off and they kinda take turns being priorities. and to top it off lately i just have no motivation. i seem to look at everything and make mental notes of all the things that i want to change or do! (am i overwhelming you yet?) i really sometimes wish i could have a magic wand, or even 3 wishes would work at this point! okay okay i know it starts to sound like poor me and how depressing and who wants to read about this crap! i know! so i won't bore you with anymore. i just know in my heart and mind that i need to do the basics first, the things that truely are important to me. then the rest of the things will fall into place! for me these things are my prayers, scripture reading, and my gratitude journal! so tomorrow is another day, a new begining. so i will start out fresh and try not to become overwhelmed. i will try and remember the things that i truely am grateful for. some of those things would include: all my family, my friends, my beliefs, my talents, freedom, and the opportunity to learn and be inspired from so many people. i know that the things we go through are for a reason and they make us stronger. yet sometimes we get so involved in things that we forget to step back and look at the whole picture.

so i'm really glad that i sat down to write some of these feelings. it really helped me to work through things as i was typing them. i think i have a better perspective on things and i'm gonna keep pushing along!
