Isn't it weird how songs can change your mood? I've been listening to a playlist on my itunes and my mood has changed so many times. And it is totally based on the words of the song. For instance, one of the songs I heard was My Wish by Rascal Flatts and I was feeling happy and warm inside. Another song I heard was Picture to Burn by Taylor Swift and I was like omg do I really want to let myself into a situation like that and I felt totally reserved and hostile.
Maybe it's just me or the fact that I'm a girl, I go through so many feelings in a day. I can be a very emotional person. The smallest things can change my mood in an instant: a phone call, text message, comment, email, song. I'm sure many other people go through this too but it just amazes me. I'm so into how the mind works. The things that trigger us to feel a certain way. Memories that are triggered from these events.
First impressions. You think you get to know someone but sometime later something happens and they just totally shock you. Even the friends that you have had for the majority of your life, those who are pretty much your brother or sister. Even those who are your brothers and sisters.
I have been in a very complitative state lately. I have been wanting to write a lot more. But as I start to write I become very drowsy. I am pretty sure it is not because of my writing because I have been very interested in what I have to say, the words that are on the tip of my pencil just waiting to come out. Anyways, in this thoughtful state I've been in lately I've been thinking a lot about people. No one in particular but just the behavior of people I encounter every day. I guess I'm trying to say, or at least it's what has been on my mind lately, is that people are going to disappoint you and you just have to walk past it and keep on going. If they really meant what they did then the situation will just make you stronger. There will be people that will have clashing views as you. And because of your personalities, there will be some clashing in the conversations that you have. You just have to learn how to deal with people like this. There are plenty other people that God has in store for you. Some people are here to make you stronger. The situations that may come up between are preparing you. It may be to help people who have been through the same thing as you. Or there may be a similar situation and you will have the experience to help get to the right solution.
Don't be shallow. Don't judge people by their outward appearance. There is this song by Casting Crowns. It is called Does Anybody Hear Her. It is basically about giving people a chance. A chance to change their life around. How can we expect to save people if we don't talk to them? Don't even give them a chance to tell their story? Everyone needs compassion.
Well I don't know where I am going now. I know this blog went all over the place but I pretty much just talked about what came to mind and what I have been thinking about lately. I just need to get some stuff out.
