feeling blue

[sarbear_7]

Lately I have been feeling pretty blue. It just seems like everyone around me has their act together and their lives are moving along with direction. I on the other hand, feel alone. I just got this new job, which started off GREAT, now I am so ready for a new career path. But what, where, how

Wow, it's like you're in my head. All my friends (it seems like) have gotten married in the last year or two and now a bunch of them are having babies. Some have moved away. I'm working for not enough money at a job I don't love. I haven't gone to church in a month, which is SO not like me. If it weren't for Adam, I'd probably feel very lonely (and I still do sometimes).

I'm sorry I don't know what to tell you, but it's seriously comforting to know that I'm not the only one feeling this way, so maybe that can comfort you too. I keep thinking everybody's moving on and changing, and here I am. Yet at the same time, it's not that I haven't changed, but that I'm not changing the same way they are. They seem so perfect and here I am being a terrible Christian in a sucky job, etc. But I know things aren't perfect for them really, and if there are other people out there in the same stage as me, then I can try not to panic just because my other friends didn't experience this. I just keep praying and taking things little by little. I have to keep believing that even though I stumble and feel totally lost at times, God isn't giving up on me. We'll get back on track eventually.

you know, most of the time i think that i am the only one that feels the way that i do. i think, no one else has these crazy, weird thoughts. it is definitely comforting to know that i am not alone. thanks for saying what you did. i appreciate it! and yes, we will get on track eventually.
