Sometimes looking back on past events doesn’t help you move forward in life it just gets you thinking about the what if’s.

And the what if’s really don’t get you anywhere because you start looking back on how you could improve the life that you are current living.

And yes we all want to improve on something to make life better but, we shouldn’t beat ourselves up just because we are not in the stage in our life we want to be.

Some day what is meant to be will fall right into place and we will be blessed that life is still improving and  that we get to wake up everyday and look back only to fix the things we can.

And to let go of the things that we just aren’t meant to have.

I know

mywords2228

you need me the most but, when do I get to rest and not feel so tired and empty.

Do I get to feel like the breeze is blowing towards me with such a nice pace instead of high winds that are always trying to knock me down.

Do I truly know you because you want to put me in a box and hope that box will keep me happy.

I haven’t wanted to get out of this box so badly before this day and I know the lord will bless me in the right direction.

For I must struggle to get the place I’m meant to be and there is nothing holding me back right now not even myself.
