Ok so I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately and whether or not to post it, but I decided why not. So I’ve come to the realization that I take life too seriously. I analize everything, and have found it hard to sleep if there is some percieved big decision or something big happens throughout the course of the day. Before I thought it was just the way I am, and too an extent that is true, but I don’t really like it.
The other day me and mom were talking about something and she told me, “You only see black and white, most stuff happens in the grey.” So i’ve taken this thought on, “life is lived in the grey”. God is teaching me how to enjoy life for what it is. How to enjoy people for who they are, and not be so dang serious. In everything. Life is way too short. Not only that, I think it bothers other people, it bothers me.
I think i’m just rambling now, but the jist of it is this: I have made the decision that I am not going to be so serious. I’ve made the decision that I’m going to enjoy the little things in life. I’ve made the decision to try not to be so analytical.
Through this process, I’ve seen that some of my thoughts on some issues were way to strict, way to harsh. so yeah, I guess some of those will have to change too.
Today is a new day! Be joyful always!
peace

Haha. That’s what I’ve been trying to say all this time. Just don’t go off the deep end in the other direction. Learn to walk the line. As long as God’s love is our center, who can lead us astray? Right? Love you bro.
