No where to go but up!

Once you hit bottom there is no where to go but up.

So thanks to a great talk with a friend and some serious time searching the web followed by some reflection I expierenced a day with some hope. I also subscribe to some awesome things (i.e following postsecret on twitter).

I want to let you know of a little gem I found. Stumbleupon.com if you have never tried it you should.

I have decided that I am going to make it a point to do something each day to change my current situation.(One of my finds on the internet was a site called boxofcrayons. All I can say is check it out and let it inspire you). There are things I need to let go of. Situations I try to control. I have always had a set of standards to measure my worth by. College, grades, sports, boys, approval. After college it was onto the next step, get a good job and find a man to marry. LOL its just not that black and white.

I don't know how to let go of the timeline I had for my life and I don't know how to deal with choosing a path that is not in the box of approval that I have lived in.I When did I become so addicted to approval?

Well for now this is what I am going to hold onto:

"Lord Jesus, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; Courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference."
