confessions of the overly dramatic

  I have found, that with social media, I tend to be overly emo, or dramtic, about everyday things. This outlet is not good for a soul who is already predisposed to being dramatic <-- Me.

       Been working through some things the past few days, and I have had to stop myself countless times from posting vague and emo facebook status updates or overly dramatic instagram posts.
 I consider this growth, as last year, or the year before, there would have been no " had to stop myself" in that previous sentence. It would have just simply been- "I have been posting".

So instead I post here, because, well, its a way for me to release my thoughts out for all the 'verse to see, ( props if anyone picked up on the firefly reference) yet I don't have to worry about people actually reading it. I know I could take a page out of my friends book and make this blog 100% private, but I wont.  I don't mind the occasional soul stumbling across my ramblings.

Two days ago I took a chance, put myself out there, and it didn't go the way I was expecting. And as much as that makes me sad, I find myself at peace with the outcome. I NEEDED any outcome, because the ambiguous state we had found ourselves was driving me crazy. And as much as i WANTED a different outcome, i find my soul flooded with relief that all the wondering, the questions, the is this, or isn't this, is over. Now I know, and with that knowledge comes peace. Doesn't make it any easier, but, thats okay.

 Today's teaching on shereadstruth.com was on Romans 8:1, and a simple hymn.
  Here's the 4th verse, which I find so perfect for my thoughts today

While I draw this fleeting breath,when mine eyes shall close in death,when I soar to worlds unknown,see thee on thy judgment throne,Rock of Ages, cleft for me,let me hide myself in thee.  

from “Rock of Ages”
Augustus Toplady, 1776

Rock of ages, Cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee.
yes..
