Distracted.

Lately, I haven't written anything. That could be because I've been so pre-occupied. Homework, friends, family, cleaning, thinking about my future, work, shopping, best friend coming home... yeah, that all takes up my time. But that's not the only reason I haven't been writing. I need inspiration. I need something to write about. All the other days I wrote something, I felt like all that stuff was on my mind and couldn't wait to get it out. I've got nothin. And once again, that could be because I've been so pre-occupied with stuff that I haven't been able to see my inspiration. I feel like this happens a lot to us. See, now I'm getting some inspiration... here we go. :)
All these things get in our way of what we really need to see. All those things got in my way of seeing my inspiration, and I didn't realize it all week until now. This is just like what happens when people fall away from God. We get so distracted, so busy with life that we don't take the time to open up our eyes, take a minute and realize what we've been distracted from. It's not till we hit a wall, then finally realize what we've been missing. You see what I'm saying? It happens to all of us. And for the people that don't know God, they haven't ever taken the time to get to know Him... Once again, distracted by what the world has to offer.
So people. I'm telling you, take the time to clear your mind, take a break, open your eyes, and see what's right in front of you. Think about what matters in this world. Think about what you've been missing while you've been focused on whatever you do during your day. Think about what's going to last in this life. Homework? no. A clean house? not even for a day. Material items? Nope, they all go out of style, or the next best thing comes out the next week. Put all those aside, just for an hour or two. Take a break and ask an old friend to go to coffee with you, catch up. See where they are at in life. Don't worry, homework can wait an hour, I promise.
Your Family, Friends, People that will support you, bring you up instead of breaking you down. Now those are some things to focus on. Those relationships matter, they last. One other thing you might want to consider... a relationship with God. That is something worth putting time into. That relationship will last... for eternity.
