Wandering Mind

Most people can't tell but internally I'm basically a maniac! Not the delusional type but the worrying type! My mind is always racing, I'm always thinking, I'm always concerned, I'm always self-Conscious, etc. Here's a glimpse into what goes through my mind a day...

1. Body image: How do I look to others. What is their perception of me? Does it really matter? What is my perception of myself? Do I measure up?

2. God: Does he hate me? Why am I always pushing against him? Will I ever be consistent with him? Am I really be called to do what I think I'm being called to do?

3. Being single: Why am I? What do I have to do in order to not be single? Am I ready for that? Is there something wrong with me? There is a huge part of me that hates being alone!

4. Grad school: Am I ready for it? I'm excited for it! But nervous at the same time! Will I be accepted by anyone I want to be accepted by? Will I fit in? Am I making the right decision about what to study?

5. GRE: WHY HAVEN'T I BEEN STUDYING FOR IT? I can't do math! I'm probably going to fail! But I shouldn't think like that! But it's probably true! I haven't even registered for it! Why am I such a sham!?

6. Therapy: Why haven't I looked into going back! I'm scared! I don't know what to expect. I don't know what else I will find! I don't know who else I will find. What if I don't like them? What about other memories?

7. Zeta: Why do people not take it seriously? I'm ready for a grad chapter! What if they don't like me? What if I don't like them? Will I be able to afford it? I really do love my Z Phi B!

8. Church: It was so great to be back in the house of the Lord! Why was I away for so long? What have I missed! What is in store for me there? Will I continue going? I need to!

9. New Job: I can't Trader Joe's anymore! I don't like the things that are happening! I hate feeling under appreciated! I don't mind the work but there is too much pressure and stress! I'm just scared I won't be able to find another job! I pray these other options work out! I would be really grateful!

10. MUSIC: Will I ever play again? I miss it so much! I need it in my life! That's what has been missing! I just need really need music!

11. Family: At times I feel disconnected! I wish we were all closer! I wonder what happened? How does it get fixed?

12. Friends: How many people really like me? Am I good friend? I think I am. But am I really? How do I know? Do people I consider friends consider me as their friends?

13. Books: There are so many books I have started and not finished! There are also a few that I have finished this year? I need to start reading like I used to!

14: Love: What does it really mean to love? Why is it so hard to let go of a love? Do you still love me? If not, why? Do I deserve love?

And yes I pretty much thought of all of this today! There is probably more that I missed but I couldn't remember everything!

After Bible Study last night something hit me; that I have the tendency to be apathetic about things that happen to me in life. I'm willing to just see what happens. Which at times can be a good thing but I have come to realize it hasn't been working for me. There are some things that I need to be more proactive about: 1. My relationship with God. See it's not just enough that I am saved. There is way more to being connected to God then going to church one day a week and telling people that I'm a Christian. While I'm not going to be perfect there are numerous things that I can be doing to strengthen and expand my faith. Beginning with what I do at home. I have always thought that it was possible to just read the Bible once maybe twice a week, pray when I was need of something and everything be OK. This I have come to realize is not true. In order to have the relationship with God that I desire I need to be in constant communication with the Lord. And this has to sta...

#RoadToCandidacy

The moment you've all been waiting for, or maybe not, either way it's here!! As of today at 7:44 am my Qualifying Exams are underway!! That's right, for the next 2 months I will be on locked down writing at least 60 pages in response to 3 questions. Send me snacks, love, luck, motivation, and things to do for fun times (because baby girl will need a break)! Hopefully my depression and anxiety are willing to work with me. With that I am off to get started on Question #1! #RoadToCandidacy

RIP

Yesterday, I found that my Aunt Lou (my grandmother's sister) passed. This is my first time dealing with the of someone so close to me. When my sisters and I spent summers in Detroit we spent a majority of our time with her. It has been hard for me to deal with mostly because my grandmother has lost both of her younger sisters. The only thing I can think of is that my grandmother being the oldest is going to be gone soon as well.
