In the Funk

Oh yeah! I have a blog!

Whenever life gets busy, or just a bit dicey, do you have the same things in your life drop off as stuff gets tougher? You know - peripheral things that you just don't think to do when there's more to think about?

One thing I struggle with is maintaining a well-rounded lifestyle when things get crazy. I tend to talk to friends less. I don't eat as well. I find myself restless and unsatisfied with things that normally engage me.

Truth is, it's these times where I'm holding my breath for something to happen. Does that ever happen to you?

When I consider that I've moved several times in the last three years, it's easier to find that establishing/maintaining friendships has suffered. A lot of that time has been spent working tooth and nail to have a standard of living. It's the process of making a life of oneself, yet I've found it extremely hard.

What makes life worth living? Friends, family, significant others, overcoming obstacles, and so on. Right now, I have an opportunity to make a fresh start; the next stop can be a semi-permanent one. Some friends and family can be closer. Goals can be reached and certain problems overcome. Above anything else though, I wish for my faith in God to see me through all of this and more. Perhaps that is the source of strength that will encourage me to keep living. No, I know it is. It is the one aspect of life that can provide relief and comfort regardless of outside circumstances.

Man, there've been times when I never thought things would be so hard. I think God would want me to have a great attitude about things and to engage, not withdraw.
