Sorry world, I haven't forgotten about you. Every time I go to blog, I lose my mojo. And I'm always thinking of things to blog when I'm NOT sitting in front of my lappy toppy.
Today, I went over to one of my gf's house after work. She thinks I went over to try her new sopapilla cheesecake, but I really went for her company. Her house is clean. It smells good, there's children laughing and playing and giving hugs and crying and blowing their noses and climbing all over me. Somehow, I feel at peace.
Our house feels cold and messy and restless. It can't help it. I let it get this way, it only matches my attitude. My attitude towards life and cleanliness as keeper of house and home. With some effort my house can be better than this. A place where I actually want to be.
You see, I have pushed life and responsibilities aside. Doing the minimum everyday, just enough to get by. In my fatigue and illness, my bed has been my only haven. With my trusty computer to entertain me, nothing else mattered. And how it shows. Not only with my house but with everything, physically, spiritually, relationally.
I would like to make some changes, lots actually. New habits, forsaking old sins, doing away with apathy. I shall put effort where it counts. I will not let time be sucked from me in menial things. I will invest in fruitful work. I will do away with old self and walk in newness of life.
Things that are bad for you die hard. But I will give them up with good encouragement. I will not be the same person I am today.

But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light. For this reason it says,
ReplyDelete"Awake, sleeper,
And arise from the dead And Christ
will shine on you."
Therefore be careful how you walk,
not as unwise men but as wise,
making the most of your time, because
the days are evil.
I'm in your corner beloved. We'll work on this together.
