It's All from Your Perspective

You wake up and look in the mirror. There, glaring at you is a huge zit. You freak out, you can't go to school, your life is over. You determined to stay home today, not even world war III is going to get you out of there. Then you get a phone call from a friend, co-worker, or family member and you whole perspective changes. That little pimple on your forehead is now nothing compared to your friend, co-worker, or family member's problem. You pick yourself up out of bed, get dressed, and are out the door. That pimple means nothing to you now.

I'm sure you've had one of these days. You have a problem and suddenly life is miserable for you. Then you take one quick look outside your own world and realize its nothing compared to the real world around you. Now, I'm not saying you don't have serious, big problems (you know who you are. Just Kidding! :-P ) but..sometimes...you're "Goliath" is somebody else's speck of dust. There's hunger, AIDS, war, poverty, and the list goes on and on. But not only is it world wide, it's locally too. It can be even closer than that with friends and family. Sometimes you don't even know they're hurting, and here you are going on about that zit on you're forehead when they're breaking inside from a divorce, death, illness, or so on. Sometimes its best to take a minute and look at life from other's perspectives and not just our own. Sometimes...It can make a world of difference.

So...before you start freaking out over that pimple...think of that other person's Goliath. I know it gave me a perspective check today.

I'm Back! Sorta

Hey! I'm back! Sorta.... I'm with Kayla (www.aheartlikedavid.blogspot.com) I got tired of looking at the same blog every time I signed in. But anywho..I've been thinking and thinking and trying to find something to write about but I've come up short. And then I tried writing some more one-shots and have a story started but...I have yet to finish it. So...I am working on starting up my posting again...hang in there! Most likely my next post will be a one-shot but...then again..who knows..I may have another sort of inspiration. So stayed tuned! The best is yet to come! (or so they say...)
