should've gone to bed hours ago.
i'm still wide awake.
and it's november.
i was reading old entries from the last year and a half. it's rather shocking how much things have changed since then and how many people have come into, returned to, and walked out of my life. and how much i have struggled with certain relationships and still continue to struggle with them. there is no doubt in my mind that i have exhibited a lot of spiritual and emotional growth this year. and there is also no doubt in my mind that God has unconditionally shown me so much grace, love, and mercy. He has blessed me in unique ways every time i have cried and called upon Him in distress and sadness. He reassures me that He is always on my side. my family and friends and my job have taught me a great deal about life, love, and patience. i am so blessed to have each and every one of you in my life. no matter what is going on in our own lives i feel like i am never alone in this. so i thank you all from the bottom of my heart, you each mean more to me than my simple words could ever express.
life is a complicated process.
it has its mundane and compelling moments.
and it's okay to be upset with it sometimes.
but don't let that keep you down.
regret and self-pity won't get you ahead.
focus on the better things that keep you going.
seek for the drive in your life.
