sunday scribblings.

prompt #115: guide.

i wish that life came with a user's manual or some sort of guide book. sometimes i feel like i am not where i'm supposed to be, that i'm not doing what i am supposed to be doing and that i'm striving to achieve goals that i'm not supposed to achieve.

i know we all have these moments, where nothing seems clear and everything is confusing...and then i remember that i am in control. i am the one who gets to decide what i want to do and where i want to be and what goals i want to achieve. granted, i have to remember to say my prayers and listen for the guidance from the man upstairs...but in the end, i am in charge.

and so when i feel like my world is upside-down and out of control, i must remember i am in charge and that i get to ask for guidance. i guess that i do have a guide book...my own personal guide book, written one day at a time.

  1. such a difficult thing, to deal with life's up and downs, and find reason or rational for it. I guess "be the change" is a good idea too.

  3. when you listen for guidance it will always come to you - sometimes it's so quietly and gently spoken that we can miss it if we aren't listening well, however --- you are on the right track, though, and eventually like a jigsaw puzzle, the pieces begin to fit - very nice post!!!
