My birthday was 3 days ago and of course I have to write. But about what? As I sit to write, I’m not even sure of what to share so let’s just go with the flow on this special day of being 31 years & 3 days old.
I woke up around 6:30 a.m. on my birthday morning feeling excited and relieved. I was excited because it was MY DAY and thankful because the day before I just finished up my summer semester of taking 2 courses. One of the courses was a 4-week statistics class that almost gave me a breakdown! I literally had to take a step back from this class and seek the Lord in order to have the ability to follow through. Thankfully, as always, God gave me just what I needed to finish strong! I was able to push through and finish up with an A. To God be the glory!
Secondly, another thought I had on my birthday morning was: LIFE GOES ON. I have a somewhat serious personality and probably take some things serious that most overlook, but as I age I’m learning that life goes on. I’m not becoming less serious, but I am giving more thought to the simple fact that life goes on.
Let me share an example: LIFE GOES ON
Last week while driving I was having a mentally stressed moment, but then I came to a red light and noticed a blind man standing on the corner. I’m so thankful to God that I was able to notice this man and learn from him. I thought about how none of our lives are perfect, but things could always be worse.
Many people are blind due to no control of their own, but as bad as that may seem… Life goes on. They have to learn to deal with their weakness. So at the age of 31 & 3 days old, I want to keep my seriousness but also keep in mind that LIFE GOES ON.
Whatever situation we find ourselves in we should keep an eye out for the lesson and know that where there is learning, there is growth. We should learn from our struggles, do our best, and know that no matter the outcome… LIFE GOES ON.
