I woke up earlier today than usual…too early in fact, however instead of feeling great, I find myself feeling anxious as if something is not right.
I usually feel anxious when I haven’t met goals or when things don’t go according to plan or when I kept overthinking about a certain mistake (no matter how small it is) that I made. Yesterday was supposed to be a great day but somehow I slept feeling worried. I thought it was because I was tired and had lesser sleep the other night (like less than 2 hours I’m guessing). Maybe sleeping will solve it… but lo and behold, today I start my day anxious.
I prayed last night about it and even today. I’m currently also going through Proverbs as part of later’s ROAD challenge at church… but even with these I still do feel anxious. Maybe because I was really worried I messed up somewhere and I needed to confront it — I just have to see where exactly I did mess up. Point it this, we always had that one day we feel anxious about. Some actually have it worst….but we need to face it. Life sucks sometimes even on things we don’t know why….but we still need to live.
We need to push…
We need to breathe…
We need to say to ourselves “today is another day”
and while it may not feel great about today, we still need to live the best we can.
It’s not survival…it’s knowing that maybe tomorrow will be better, or perhaps later when things get clearer.
It may seem a bit dark today but hey, we will never know how bright tomorrow is (or the next day) if we don’t live today…
