Working Towards the Overflow

"Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, 

nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; 

but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on His law he meditates day and night. "

Psalm 1:1-2

The most frustrating thing at this point in my life is the fact that I cannot seem to shake off the worries of the world. Honestly it is slightly terrifying. Knowing that all will turn to dust at one point, and how no person, place or thing in life is a guarantee of any security, I'm at a loss for words when I think about just how foolish I am reacting as of late. How can my mind not seem to grasp the reality of this momentary life as I once had before. My oil of joy is going through a drought and my hope's well is barely keeping the bucket afloat. Grateful that I am sustained by the only one who can sustain a life I am clinging on, barely grasping for air. In fear of drowning in my spiritually depressive state forever to be lost..

Recently I heard that depression is a form of celebrating life- because this life is absolutely depressing if indeed the world's lies are true. How short a span a human life can be yet how infinite the possibilities of our minds can go. It is mind-blowing to think that this is all we can be, the mere thought of how this life is only but a glimpse compared to eternity. The mere fact we can comprehend such a word as eternity without having to draw it out should be a bit of a hint at how there is more to humanity than meets the eye.

This race called life indeed is difficult and I have been stalling far too long in the water-break section of it. Time to gear up my mind with the truth and focus on the work that's ahead of me..
