A year ago, I learned a life lesson. It's not about how good or bad life is, it's about enjoying the good and finding the silver lining when it's not. Never giving up when things look bleak.
A year ago, I didn't have a job. I sold almost all my music equipment. But instead of complaining about not having a job or losing all my gear, I enjoyed the free time I finally got. I was counting down the weeks until my unemployment ran out. I was unsure what my next move was, because every move seemed to not work. I was enjoying my life as much as I could. It was like a guy playing blackjack with 2 2's and the dealer has a bust. I call that blessed.
6 months ago, I was unhappy, I was stressed and my life felt like it was crumbling around me. I hated my job, I was in a stressful and dying relationship, I wanted to quit school........I was miserable. Every thing I touched felt like it turned to crap. I was in a downward spiral and I just couldn't do anything to stop it. I kept a smile on my face, a laugh in my lung but I on the inside, I just couldn't enjoy life.
Now, I have a job even when the economy said it was impossible. I'm stress....less. Yes, there are things that worry me, there are things that upset me, but at the end of the day I remain happy. I'm me again! A year later, I can say that I'm honestly in love with life. But I know this much, I'll never forget the lesson I've learned.
All I can do is testify now. God is good....no incredible! Matter of fact....there's not human word that could describe how good God is. God is just....
