Anticipation its that feeling we all experience and grow to love it, thrive off it, at times quell it, and perhaps sometimes just get shivers from it.
Why is that though? Are the things that we want or wait for that enjoyable or nerve-racking?
At this moment, I am experiencing anticipation in several situations. All these situations having some kind of impact on my immediate future, and yes possibly my future on the whole. Scary stuff huh?
So what do I do with all these things on my mind? Worry? Be apathetic?
Nope, to worry just increases stress level and thus makes the anticipation something to despise; to not care would mean that the effort I put forth would mean nothing and thus a loss of identity.
The middle ground of those two feelings is of course aimed for. But to do so without slipping into either extreme is the test that we all undergo. By ourselves this can't be achieved. Even with the biggest posse in the world, it still ain't possible. Hope you can tell what I'm getting at here. If not pick up that book called the Bible and look up Jeremiah 29:11, Philippians 4:13, or Philippians 4:6. That should shed some light on things.
All these things in the back of my head, I've gone through and played them out with basically all the outcomes, good or bad, awesome or heart-crushing. It's my personality the way I am that I do so. However I've come to realize that whichever outcome plays out. One thing will remain the same. The love of the Father.
Only time will tell. I've got money that how things pan out will only be 25% or less in favor towards me.
Unfortunate statistic for myself?
Yes.
Willing to see what those opportunities can help me achieve and how they can make me a better person?
Yes.
The Almighty watching over my life?
ALWAYS.
