rambling. . .
I love how sometimes I just need to talk things out with friends to actually bring order to my thoughts. I was talking with my friend Kristin on the phone today while she was at the airport, and after me venting about a lot of things, I realized (once again) that I overanalyze so many things, and it keeps me from just enjoying life and allowing God to actually work and build relationships and all sorts of wonderful things. I wish that there was some sort of memory trigger, every time I need to be reminded of that, that would just switch on and be as profound and "ta-da"-ish as the first time I realized it.
"Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart." - Psalm 37:4. My favorite verse. A reminder to just relax. Love God. Delight in Him! He'll take care of everything else.
In other news, this past week of soccer camp was half of what I expected and half of a surprise. I expected lots of running and exhaustion and girls who can be pretty harsh to each other. But I was surprised that my attitude was so peaceful and optimistic throughout the week. I was very grateful. I guess I just realized that this is my last season, and instead of putting a ridiculous amount of pressure upon myself, I should enjoy the season for all it can offer me. Soccer is not my life, although I greatly enjoy playing the sport. I live for something much more valuable in the long run.
I have to go pack for Harlow. I'm excited to go back. Two weeks left, and then soccer swallows up my summer. I'm going to savor these last two weeks. NO OVERANALYZING. Let God lead.
