Anxiety and Faith

Yesterday, it was a bad day but today even worse. I was driving to the career center so I could start getting a job related to my career goals. It surprises me that I never had assistance before.  The world has really put my age group (21-25 years) out in the cold air expecting us to pay all these loans, bills, and more. 


IT SUCKS


However, my faith is stronger. Instead of sitting around crying about it, I decided to say "no" and see what I am satisfied about. I am not happy with the position I am in life. I have two Bachelor of Arts Degrees and I am working on my Masters.  I am at a job and I do love my job but I know there is something more for me. I will like to utilize my education and skills more. That's all whether it is at my current job or somewhere else and it pays properly for the work that I do. 


I WAS IN HIGHER ED SCHOOL FOR FOUR YEARS


They say that undergraduate is like getting a high school diploma now.  Well I got the two undergraduate degrees and it has served me well. It got me a job in South Africa but I missed home so much in the states and I came back home.  It has been harder for me here to go for the American dream.  I am hopefully now working on my graduate degree and the job that I am in now is customer service. The people that I come across daily at work has really kept me hopefully for something more.  


THESE POSITIVE THOUGHTS HAS KEPT ME FAITHFUL DURING MY ANXIETY ATTACK.


Today I was driving and it hit me. All my emotions.  I just got overwhelmed. I was just tried. I have been working hard. living honestly. and just busting my self to death trying to get to a better life. My heart was in my throat at this point when all these thoughts were running pass my head and I just busted out crying. I really could not go through my day.


BUT I DID


I sat in my car and I prayed. I told the Lord to remind me of my current blessings.  Slowly I stopped crying and began to focus on my present.  The reason why I was in my car because I was driving to my new apartment to sign a lease.  This is one of my blessings. If I could afford a new apartment, I am not bad off.  I started to see that I know love and get love in return from my family, boyfriend, and strangers. That is a blessing.


THROUGH FAITH, I OVER CAME MY ANXIETY AND LIFE KEEPS ON MOVING ON FOR ME.
