"Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world. Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before. Let your soul take you where you long to be. Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar, and you'll live as you've never lived before."
-Erich Fromm-

S.O.S.

Confusion is defined as the inability to think with your usual speed or clarity, including feeling disoriented and having difficulty paying attention, remembering, and making decisions.

I feel like Atlas...carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders. And still, I push, grind, persevere just to get over the mountain. Some days I feel I can't continue. I WANT to give up. Take the easy way out. I'm no quitter, but it seems as if that's my only option. To throw in the towel. Wave the flag. 

Then...Jiminy Cricket...my conscience speaks to my soul: Why should I count myself out when God still sees potential in me?

I'm stuck pondering these words.

Psalm 145:14 (The Message)
God gives a hand to those down on their luck, gives a fresh start to those ready to quit.

  1. Don't give up. Giving up is for quitters and you, my friend, are not a quitter!

"...Fear not, for I have redeemed you; have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD, your God..." ▪Isaiah 43:1-3▪
