Lets start with a little knowledge shall we? I have minor anxiety attacks, most people have felt anxiety...ya know gut wrenching, nervous, heart feels like it stops beating stressed out feeling.
My lovely lady friend is going away to college soon....yes I knew about this before hand. Its gonna be hard, we both know this, but it doesnt make it any easier ya know?
Ive been reading one of my favorite books series called "The First Law" and honestly its amazing. One character in particular comes to mind, merely for the life lessons he was taught by his father, which always seem to come up.
#1 "You have to be realistic"
HA HA HA. If you know me, then you know realistic doesnt exist. We will beat the odds, end of story.
#2 "You can never have too many knives"
Honestly, best statement ever made....and its true, but we will get into that later.
#3 "Its better to do it, than to live with the fear of it"
Let me tell you folks, im scared to death. The words "committed relationship" send shivers down my spine as it is, but the words "committed long distance relationship" have my feeling like my stomach might turn inside out. Funny thing is, I dont care. Come August I will be a gibbering mess and will need all the help and support my friends can provide. But were gonna do it. Fear can take a long walk off a short cliff, cause nothing short of divine intervention is going to scare me anymore.
Heres a message for all you teenagers out there. Life is what you make it. Drown in your self pity and worries for all I care. Yes I know some of you have major worries and problems. Yes I know its hard. Yes parents are the problem most of the time. But it gets better. Pray. Pray long and pray hard. And this may sound bad, but do it yourself, to the best of your ability anyway. If you wait around on God you may be a bit disappointed, he may be testing you to see if you want it bad enough. So go ahead. Take that risk, suffer the anxiety, and throw away the fear. If you fail you at least know you did everything in your power. Life is all about choices, when are you going to make yours?
