Cleaning Day


Today was a good day. It was one of those days that I can look back at and feel like I did some productive things. I cleaned up my room. That was needed so badly. I feel like some cows could have moved in here and felt disgusted by the conditions. However, I put a lot of time into this place and it looks pretty good now. My sister joined the blogging community, and you can check her out at . She is a lot more artsy than I am and you will probably fall in love with her and her rats pretty quickly. It's kind of funny how we've grown up together and really love to be with each other. It's one of those things that I definately thank God for.

While I was cleaning up today, I kept telling myself that this was what I was trying to do with my life. There's all these things right now that look dirty, probably can be cleaned up quickly, but I don't want to touch them. It's a hard thing to deal with. I feel like I've become such an ultra lazy person. The Men's Retreat really challenged me to step up and really take responsability for the things that God has given me charge over. One of those things is my grades, so I did some work today for school. I feel bad, because I could have done a lot more. However, I can look back and be genuinely satisfied with the work I got in today. I just hope it carries on over and keeps going.

Nothing would disappoint me more than for me to lose hope and just stop trying. It's so worthy a thing to try and pick up the pieces of my life right now. I've thought about it more, and I think that was God's purpose behind the accident. I think he wanted me to stop and take an honest look at my life and reevauluate what I've been doing. It's just been taking me a little longer than it probably should have. I see how many things he has given me, and the only reason they're falling apart is because I haven't been watching over them well. I haven't been pulling my end of the rope and letting him know how much it means to me. So today, is a cleaning day. I hope that I will continue to see the cleaning going on in my life.
