My Week is Over, Finally

If it could somehow go wrong this week it has. Yet, I know that some people in this world have it way worse. I have a car, a house, a nice warm bed, and a nice place to further my education. Many don't get opportunities like this. I am thankful and blessed. I live a life that many dream of, when I turn around and dream of a better life.

Ignite is working on filling our School's Food Pantry (SNAC) for the college students who are homeless or need help having enough food. My small group went and picked up bags in a neighborhood today. There were a good few who had food for us to take back, but I'm amazed how much food people gave out of the ones we picked up. It will help SNAC out a lot, especially with Christmas & Thanksgiving right around the corner.

I'm overwhelmed with school and personal issues. I think the main thing I'm trying to grasp is how to not be everyone's therapist. I love listening to others, and helping them out. I just have hit a wall. I honestly do care for all the people I talk to; however, I feel as if I need someone to talk to too. I feel as if I am barely together right now. I can barely think, and tears will come. I don't like feeling this way at all. I know everything will be okay, and I know that it is completely normal to not be happy 100% of the time. There has just been a lot of stuff happen in one week. I just want things to be back to normal with me. It will all happen over time. Nothing that I can't handle. God is still encouraging me. The other day I came back from work, and had to go print something when I arrived back on campus. So I was walking and texting (so looking down) through one of the buildings, and I almost walked right into a big white board sign. I giggled because if I had actually walked into that thing...I would have died laughing. I did meet a freshman business major out of it. His name was Matt. So always networking...life of a business major.

*inserting more life problems mentally*

I am thankful for my:
Family, Friends, Jobs, Education, Sunshine, Oxygen, Loving God, struggles, Kleenex Tissues (I'm suffering from sinuses/allergies), Puppies, Art, Freedom of Religion & Speech, all my amazing opportunities to meet new people and see new places, a fully functioning brain, a warm bed, heat, and my wonderful life...even when I think I can't go on. God gives me the strength to carry on. I am thankful for that the most.
