the res


Yesterday, and today as well, I've been in this funk. I don't know why, mostly because there are a couple of people in my life that continuously make me feel inadequate. I hate feeling like that, but luckily most of the time when I'm feeling this way, its pretty surface. Give me a few days and it'll all be over. Thankfully, God spared me from a meeting that would have seriously made my day go even farther. I need to realize though, that at the end of the day, it's not what people make out of who I am, it really only matters what God thinks. There are going to be people in my life that will go out of their way to make sure I feel like crap, but there are also people, when I chose to listen to them, are there to reassure my purpose and why I'm here. Thank the Lord for them.
There is something I love to do though when I'm feeling like this, but also on good days. Go to Loch Raven. There's something I can just appreciate by sitting on Loch Raven Drive, that I don't get by being anywhere else. It's not only me. There are always a ton of people there. People in groups, people alone. Some sit in their cars, some walk around. There are people dressed down, people dressed in everyday outfits, and there are even dressed in suits there on their lunch break. I love it. It's a place where people go to just forget about the hectic lives they're so wrapped up in. I've actually never even seen anyone speed on that road. It's hard to, because even if you've got somewhere to be, you know that there is something more to life than that appointment you're late for and all those errands you have to run. Whether we recognize it or not, God runs through our bones and makes us appreciate the simple things; because at the end of the day, none of that other stuff matters
