You know I have decided that really all women are pretty much the same. I was talking to a dear friend about struggle not too long ago. It weighs heavy on me a lot of what others are going through. Just when you've semi-convinced yourself that you really aren't like "them" you begin to see how much we all truly have in common.
I call it "the struggle."
you may give it a certain name but inside of us we all have things going on. It might be that we do not have time to balance things. We juggle our troubles amidst life's daily responsibilities. Maybe we try to hide it...maybe we try to keep it locked away...maybe we never take time to even be aware that it even exists.
Time goes by and we do not voice it...maybe we are just too tired to deal with it. Maybe we keep ourselves too preoccupied to face it. Maybe some of you don't even get me...ha
I think for me the struggle is feeling inadequate...I could be a better wife...I could be a better mother...I could be a better sister and daughter...a better friend...more thoughtful...skinny...domestic...romantic...organized...active...a better Christian by far...you see where I'm going with my thoughts. Ha
It's all about when you are alone with God and your thoughts...what are you thinking? What are those things that make you cry? What are the desires of your heart? Why are you trying to act like everything is so wonderful when maybe you really are hurting? Do you even want to deal with truth?
For all the women in my life, I pray that whatever your struggle is today...that you find peace in knowing that I feel ya. I find Rest in God's grace. Know that you are loved and prayed for when you are least expecting it...feel the love:) I'm still a work in progress, too.
