privilege from obligation

or in a way...

GRATITUDE!

I have never been to big on halloween... I guess out of insecurity 

so we might as well hope right over to thanksgiving now that halloween is almost here.

I am struggling to be grateful for my classes this semester, and it is affecting my 

ability to pay attention, study, and retain information.

In college.... that is detrimental. 

My issue now is, how do I become grateful for something I dislike, 

how to I make it a privilege?

I immediate am pointed to the gospel. 

How do we become grateful for our trials? 

I guess we have to change our minds.

But again... how?

See the good in everything. Not just the reality. 

I think this is one of the biggest lessons in need to learn in my life.

{that and non-perfectionism... which are in opposition}

[yes i just took a moments pause to listen to "let it go" from frozen]

I guess this comes down to a "nike" thing..

...JUST DO IT...

haha but again, here I am, but how am I going to appreciate learning about the history of creativity?

I am grateful that it happened!

I just don't care that it was Ptolemy or Constantine in yada yada yada.....

{am I an awful person for thinking this way?}

okay. you become what you say, and what you say comes from how you think. 

think positively and happily, and it will come. 

be the change you wish to see. 

.or something like that.
