Forgiven!!!

Never blogged before, never even wanted to. But a friend started blogging so I figured I'd give it a try. Maybe like a daily diary or a way to vent or just express myself without being judged or misunderstood. Just a chance to say things that I want to say....maybe....we will just give it a shot! lol

So I titled this "Life as we know it" because life changes and it changes people! Life can humble us, harden us, make us bitter, make us sweeter. Life changes people!

Today I find myself hardened.....we all have choices that we make in life and we all will face the consequences of those actions sooner or later. To some you see them skimming by like they never face their consequences. They live life full of hell and seem like they are having the time of their life and they probably are--for that moment.....But I am here to tell you it all ends. It may not be today, it may not be tomorrow and it may not even be 10 years from now BUT one day I promise you it ends and they will pay for their choices and meet the consequences of their bad decisions! This is coming from someone who has made many and paid for it! Saying that when you live a life like that you aren't only hurting yourself, you hurt every person that cares for you! This is something you realize when you begin paying for your consequences. So back to my first five words of this paragraph. Today I find myself hardened.....I have someone who is very close to me that has made very bad choices his entire life. And is now paying for it. Bad decisions can take years off of your life! It literally will STEAL from you...it will ROB you blind and you don't realize it until it is too late and literally has you by the throat and you are begging for it to let you go. But by that point this decision of yours is not going to let go that easy....it is now time to pay and it is going to hang on for dear life....YOUR life! Wow, that just sent chills up my spine!

Hardened, I don't want to be, I want to run and help! I want to help take care of you and be there by your side but I can't! I'm hardened you have done this to yourself....you have done this to us! I'm so thankful for where I am today knowing that the people I love will never feel the way I feel about you right now! Thank you God for being forgiving! Please have mercy on this person.....you know who they are and that I love them very much!

People please think about your choices and who they will impact....maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow and maybe not 10 years from now but one day I promise you they will impact the people you care about most!

Then at the end of the day I am reminded of this....

 Thank you God!
