Relax

My third year of university has ended. Kind of surreal. It was a good year. I'm really falling in love with Psych. And now it's summer. I'm unemployed until mid-May, so currently I'm just relaxing. But it's so weird. I've kind of forgotten how to relax. But I guess if you have to relearn something, it's a good thing to learn.

I'm catching up on reading, having bubble baths, taking time to learn more about God and dive into His word. I'm also alone with my thoughts. That's been interesting. Learning, thinking, dreaming, worrying. I guess it's all a part of the growth process. It's just kind of scary, thinking of things I've been avoiding for so long. And I feel like so much of my worrying is irrational. I don't understand my incessant need for worrying. I want to be a strong woman who trusts God with her problems and doesn't worry about everything.

I want to grow as a woman of God.

I want to seek His way for me.

Positivity

Lately I've been surrounded by the idea of the power of positive thinking. Things have been falling apart, exploding or at least changing. I've always considered myself to be a positive person, but recently, I've been struggling to see the bright side of things.

Thankfully for me, I'm surrounded by amazing people, who help me see the bright side. Brian is constantly reminding me to look for the positives in situations, which has been so helpful. It has made us more positive people and has made us feel better about life.

Sometimes it can be easy to give up and succumb to the negativity. But that is not how God wants us to live. He has amazing plans that we can't even imagine, where He's able to bring good out of bad situations. We just need to look for the good, even if it seems hard to see.

Try the power of positive thinking. If you're anything like me, you'll be amazed at what you can find.
