Right...so I woke up this morning feeling drab. Deep within me is the feeling that I need to do more with my life than I'm currently doing. I reckon there are people out there who can identify with this feeling. I have acquired some academic and professional qualifications which some will think commendable but I ask "where do all these come in?" How do they all roll into that beautiful life I had imagined? Surely not by feeling sorry for myself and wondering when it'll be my turn. So now is the time to practice what I preach. Remember the last post? I talked about praise, turning to praise when it seems all else has failed and things are not going the way you expected. It's difficult but that's what a 'sacrifice of praise' is all about. So I kicked into praise- started playing my favourite praise tracks and all...This (writing) is also one of my therapies :)
Thankfully I received a piece from a friend this morning encouraging me to mine the gold within. It's amazing how little things that are not working in our lives becloud us from appreciating the other big things that are working and we have taken for granted. The mole hills also prevent us from showcasing our rare talents. Can I advice that you make a list of things that are working and those not working on a sheet and compare? More often than not, the working stuffs rank higher. I got this idea from the movie ' Why did I get married?' I think it's the practical expression of the hymn 'Count your blessings'. Ok, so I'm off to do the same!
Ciao!
