I’ve been feeling overwhelmed and underappreciated lately (as evidenced by a previous post).  And don’t forget to throw a bit of discouragement into the mix.  I don’t think this is an accurate feeling, though.  If I take a step back and look objectively at my life, there is absolutely no reason for me to feel those things.  And yet I do.  So what is going on?

I’ve got to get out of this funk.  Here is a list of good things in my life:  Less than three months of work left.  Grad school starting soon.  Maybe a puppy in my future.  Church is going great.  Friends are pretty awesome.  I’m eating healthier, living healthier and losing weight. 

Here is a list of things I want to have in my life: A climbing partner.  A Bible Study with folks my age and level.  Daily time with God.  (And at least two of those things are things I can have with a little effort.)

A reposting of my resolutions from this year:

I resolve to be real about my faith.  To spend intentional time with God.
I resolve to be confident in who God made me to be.
I resolve to not make foolish resolutions throughout the year, but to be careful with my decisions.
I resolve to do more of the things I think about doing (such as writing, my sewing projects, finding a climbing partner, etc).

Surely this is possible.
