This picture depicts my life these days. Rough. Steep. Rocky.
On top of all my chaos I am faced with difficult choices. Choices I thought I had made, but discovered I had not. For example the color of the trim? Initially I wanted it stained. Then hubby wanted it cream. I liked the cream except it's difficult to find a color that looks amazing with it. Then it was white. Simple. I was okay with that. What was cream would remain until I could repaint it white. My room is done and done in white. I love my room. Then we painted my son's room in BM Shaker Beige. His trim was already cream and looks amazing with the new wall color. Hubby wants all the trim cream now. My head is spinning. I'm overwhelmed with having to think and re-think all of my choices.
My son Vic is a never ending situation for me. No, he's not back home. But, that doesn't mean I'm not his mom and I don't worry.
The economy. Oh the economy!
So, maybe if I hide no-one will find me.
Maybe if I hide, my troubles will disappear.
Maybe if I hide, somehow everything will look clearer over time.
Maybe if I hide I can complete a thought.
Maybe if I run up that rocky hill I will come down on the other side a stronger person.

oh Suzann, take one step at a time...when things get like this for me I have to remind myself to take a deel breath, step away for a bit and get away. Take a few hours, get a pedicure, shop or window shop, grab some coffee with a friend, let yourself just be for a little while. Hope things start looking up, cause I don't know about you, but I would definitely fall coming back down that mountain!
Hiding doesn't really help all that much; someone always finds you. And that someone usually needs something, like their butt wiped or something to eat.
At least, that's how it is at my house.
You will come down that hill a stronger person. You ARE a strong person. You can overcome whatever life sends you. I have faith in you, and more importantly, God has faith in you. He's the one who made you, after all.
Love you, girl. And stop watching the news, it's just too depressing.
I am convinced this is why God say, "BE STILL!" You may need to post this everywhere that you go on a regular basis to remind yourself to stop and let God fill you with peace.
You have the right thought at the end... God is with us and we don´t need to hide!
