So, not long after my last post - about 12 hours, actually - my mom and I reconciled. We've been doing well since our argument. I've also started speaking to my dad again. Who would have guessed.
When everything felt like it was going wrong, I also was dumped the weekend before Valentine's Day. That definitely made me feel bad about myself. It sucked at the time. But, God has a funny way of working things out. For example, my ex told me that he couldn't give me what I deserved and fed me a bunch of BS. Come to find out, he was seeing someone else the next day. Well, naturally, this infuriated me. I then thought that there was something wrong with me. That maybe I had caused everything. I had a conversation with someone a couple of weeks later. This person informed me that my ex was being kicked out of the Navy but he could not tell me why. About a week later, I found out why. At first, I thought, "I can't believe I dated that creep." Then, I thought, "KARMA". THEN, I realized something. That's not Karma. That's God. And I love God's funny way of working things out. It always does work out, and it's not always your fault that things happen. I mean, I wasn't super attached to this guy, but it still sucked. But God would never give you anything that you couldn't handle. He loves us and he puts us through trials to strengthen us and our faith.
Think about that the next time everything is going wrong.
Just thought I'd share a little update from the past month and a half. I'll get back on my grind. I promise.
Signing off for now,
Simply Sam.
