Appreciative

Here we are again, questioning “life”. This time around though I had a really great friend tell me something that struck my core. Normally I take my friends thoughts and opinions into consideration. I might not always choose to follow what they might have to say, but I do listen. Recently though I found myself hearing what they had to say but not listening to what they were truly telling me. As I was questioning my life and my purpose in what I was doing a friend told me “Jess you’re not GOD; quite trying to be GOD” I told her ‘yeah I know this I’m not trying to be GOD just trying to do what is right.’ Turns out…She was completely right! I knew what she meant but it didn’t hit me until a few days later. Along with other random acts of what I feel was God telling me…Jess just shut up and listen. I am so thankful for that friend rightfully being strict and honest with me. She had told me the same thing countless of times and it was this particular time that just stuck and opened my eyes. I needed it and I am extremely grateful and thankful for her.

This is not to say that my life is perfect but I do have a better perspective on my life again.

So to this friend I tell you THANKS!! Thanks for being honest, truthful even if and when it hurts to hear the truth. Most of all I say thanks for being an amazing friend! I’m so glad GOD has placed you in my life (he knows how much I need you) lol. Also, since you got married your familia now!
