When you're 22 years young and married, the degree of your thoughts, dreams, ambitions and plans are no where near comparable to the average 22 year old. All of a sudden my mind started tossing and turning thinking about my future with Thomas.. "Where will we live? What type of house will we have? Will we have successful careers and love what we do? And hat about our kids? Will we have enough to provide for them? Vacations, toys, time? Will our marriage still be great 20 years from now?" I'm the guilty "over thinker", so suddenly I'm ten times more worried about meeting all my goals and dreams in life than your average Joe. I've always been a planner, I like knowing what I'm going to do and have it all planned ahead of time and be assured that its going to carry through..
But I realized something, sometimes life doesn't work that way. It throws you curve balls, it ruins your perfectly thought out plans, that's life! We've all been there, right? Things don't go as planned so we get stuck in a rut or become dismayed.. I don't want that, I don't want to ever put myself in that state of mind. No matter what my plans and dreams are, I need to be confident and strong enough to give them my all whether things get in the way or not. I'm learning to put my faith in God and know that whatever may happen, wherever I end up, everything will be OK.
My message to you is- No matter what you are trying to achieve in your life, no matter what has brought you down, don't.give.up! Pray unceasingly, and work endlessly to get to where you want to be! You only have one life, you might as well live it right. Do what you can, with what you have, where you are..

Hope this pep talk helped, and I hope you all feel a tad bit more motivated to do what you need to do.
