An old enemy of mine..


.. Anxiety.

Ugh, I'm so stressed out. I think I will vent.

Christmas: money - gifts - money - parties - money - cards - money (Need I say more?)

The house: moving - inspections - boxes - problems - bills - more boxes

Work: sales - goals - sales - goals - sales - goals - bonus?

That's not even the half of it. I look back and I think, I am so blessed.

I'm 19 years old and:
- engaged to best person I've ever been with
- building the nicest house I've ever lived in
- working at a place where I have my own office and making the best paycheck I've ever made
- driving the nicest vehicle I've ever had

I mean there is so much going on in my life right now that some people would look at me and wonder why I'm complaining. I feel so bad because I don't want to come across as if I'm not appreciative or grateful because I am, but when I take a look at all that God has done for me, I just worry about when it's all gonna come crashing down.

Maybe that doesn't make sense for some people, but seriously I catch myself thinking about stories you see on tv where it's like:

"They had it all.. until, etc."

And I'm like, "Oh no!" because I seriously feel like life could not be much better for me right now and I just worry about where it will go from here.

Don't get me wrong, things are not perfect, but I know that God is really blessing me at this point in my life and I don't want something to happen to where it all gets taken away. I guess that's where I become selfish. It's like, now that I have more, I want to keep it.

I guess only people who are anxious and over analyze things like me would understand that. I know it's weird.

It's kinda crazy too, I don't think I've even talked to anyone about this and here I am venting about everything on blogspot. :\
