I'm just going to be happy.

Sunday, 29 November 2009

In the last couple of weeks it has become a little bit hard living as a Student.

My flatmates are getting on my nerves. The work load is becoming increasingly unbearable. I've also become very conscious in what i'm spending my money on, as there is soo little of it at the moment.

I'm missing my family so much. I'm missing my personal bank (Dad), my mum's Sunday cooking, my little brother's noise and my other two siblings bickering (I never thought i would!).

In my silent moments when I think about it all, it really gets me down.

But then I come to the realisation that I don't have it all bad and I remember to thank God regardless.

I know that He loves me and has a purpose for my life, and all these experiences are being used to form my character and future.

It may get hard sometimes, but when I really think about it, I just remember to be happy and to trust God.

"Whosoever trusteth in the Lord, happy is he." ~ Proverbs 16:20

So i'm going to do just that!

Shirley

Lovely post hunni. I believe in God too and say prayers every night. This post has inspired me to feel happy. Sometimes I really let things get on top of me and I get upset so easily. Life is too short for me to feel like that unnecessarily.
