THANKFUL FOR: GOOD DECISIONS

For me, decisions are SO hard to make. I don’t like to fail and I always have trouble deciding things easy and hard. Finals are coming up and this week I have a paper, final project, one test, and one final due. I have been a little stressed, but the good news is that after this week I only have one final left and then I am done for the semester (which is crazy, but that’s for another post) I am so excited, yet nervous at the same time. In order to get rid of this stress I decided to start early that way I wouldn’t be cramming. Today we had the game and then tonight we had a little get together and I knew that I couldn’t do both and be truly ready for this crazy week. I decided that as bad as I wanted to go to the game, I would want to do stuff Saturday night. So as bad as I hated it, I made the decision to skip the game and work on some stuff. I was real mad at myself when everyone was posting pictures at the game, but then when the night rolled around I was pretty happy because I got the paper and the project done and I didn’t have stress in my head that would cause me to not enjoy myself. My friend, Trank, said that she was proud of me for making that good decision and I agree. It would have been so easy to do nothing all day, but instead I made this decision and it is already paying off. I am growing up y’all and I am so thankful that I made that decision. It is always so nice to make a good decision because in the end it has the best outcome. So even though I would have really loved to be at that game, sometimes we have to make sacrifices that of course aren’t fun, but in the end it hopefully will turn out okay. It is hard and part of life to make these decisions and I am so thankful that I feel like I am doing the right thing. This is part of God’s plan for us and we all have to think about that in order to really grow up in life. I am so thankful that I feel like I am doing something right! Prayers please as I start this week and prayers for a great ending to a great first semester. Remember to be thankful always, but especially thankful during this holiday season. Making a good decision can often be hard, but in the end we will all be thankful for what we take from the outcome! 
Yours Truly,
Southern and Thankful
