Moving On

The all-known, beloved song Let It Go comes to mind as I write this. In fact, I'm not quite sure what I am writing exactly. It's just one of those times I felt I should blog about a certain subject, and so, bare with me as I do so. This whole post may just end up being a long ramble of confusion. I will do my best to clear my head and type it out accurately.

Lately, and when I say lately, I mean like a while. About a few months ago really. I knew I had to move on. There was this thing in my life, an overall good thing, but it began to hold me back in ways. Important ways. I noticed I was drifting from my relationship with Christ, lacking in household chores, school even. I wasn't achieving the things I knew I was capable of. I knew that God was sending me signs to leave this "thing" and move forward. To close this chapter of my book but you see, that was just so hard to do. To walk away from what you may think is the best chapter of the book you're reading, well, that would just be excruciating, right?? I couldn't do it. I kept ignoring the signs and continued through the motions. I stayed in my comfy, mediocre little life. Did the same things, day in, day out. Until finally, I simply couldn't take it anymore. I took the bold approach, and said farewell to this so called "thing". No more. Adios. I have bigger and better things awaiting me. And I cannot wait to see what God holds for my future! I know it is still a process, and it won't be an easy one, but I'm willing. And if you're willing, my friend, God can do some amazing things with you. You just have to realize sometimes, that there is a time for everything. That chapters do indeed end, but the book still goes on. Let Jesus write yours! I can't wait to read your extraordinary story. We all have one. But you wouldn't want yours to be stuck on the same old chapter. People come in and out of our lives. For a reason, surely. All good things come to an end. Just in time for the new good thing to begin! So try not to get stuck in a chapter. Keep moving forward, my dear. And never look back.
