perspective is a lovely hand to hold
I love those lyrics. When the nightmares in your life come along, keep them in perspective. They probably aren't that big of a deal. Remember all those bad days I had? I don't. I genuinely can't even remember my emotions, feelings, or reasons for those bad days. What do I remember? Hockey games, Saturday nights at Tiger Stadium, reading in the grass.
Today went a lot better than planned. I got a low B on my Sociology test. I finished my writings for Biology only 30 minutes later than I normally go to bed. TNT was fantastic. It was one of those nights where God just speaks straight to your heart.
Lately I have been struggling with fear. I fear being alone. I fear the future. I fear not having any control. But faith can't exist alongside fear. If I have to pick one? FAITH!
I think tonight is my last night of stress this week. Nothing else is due that I can think of. There are no more tests. Now I get to play catch up. Yay!
There are so many thoughts going through my head right now. God is good. You can trust Him. He is jealous for you. He is jealous for your time. Your energy. Your faith. Your trust. All of you!
Reasons my friends are great:
-Candace "Instead of giving you money for your Auburn ticket, I got you a $15 Cane's gift card." You know me well dear.
-Will: "You need a walker?" His way of offering to walk me to the BCM.
-Meredith: "Does my room smell funny?" Glad to know I'm not the only one.
-Casey: "I hate to ruin your hopes and dreams, but you will probably not marry a Jonas brother." Blasphemy

I googled the lyrics to this song and came across your page. I have been depressed lately due to some things that are somewhat trivial after reading your paragraph. I know this is an old post of yours so it may seem odd, but I just wanted to say thanks for those words. They really spoke to me about a specific place I'm at in life right now.
