Isn't it funny how sometimes we think we know what will make us happy and bring us fulfillment?
This has been and will continue to be one the hardest lessons I have to learn.
It's so easy to fall into this trap though. "I know what makes me happy and that is what I want"... yep, thoughts I have had before and will continue to have unfortunately. It is because of thoughts like this that I have made some bad decisions in my life.
"I don't want that so I'm not going to do that" or "I think I really want this and it will make me happy so I'm going to pursue this". Both thoughts have brought myself and others misery.
So what can I do?
Do I look back on those times when these thoughts and subsequent actions happened and try to fix them or do I just move on?
By trying to undo what I have done in the past am I just repeating a cycle of myself thinking I know what's best for me now?
I guess I just need to trust in God and hope I am doing what He needs me to be doing, whether I like it or not.
I'm getting to the point where I can let go of dreams of things and places, but letting go of people, people that I love is much harder.
Peace all
