Save our Souls

This is working out to be an inspirational week!!!

Ive recently come to think about salvation. I dont mean what happens to your soul once you die, although that is something to think about too. What has gotten my mind working is how we find salvation on a daily basis. Who will save us when we're drowning?

In our every day lives, we are surrounded by temptation, stress and fear. We are afarid what will happen when we dont live up to expectations, we stress about our relationships, our workload and the pimples on our forehead. (Although that last one is easily solved with Cliniques Spot Treatment, FYI) We are constantly tempted by parties, men, women, fashion and alcohol. Temptation is everywhere and noone can blame you if you slip. However, how do you get back up.

I used to depend on other people to pick me back up. When i had a shitty day at school or work, id call my boyfriend, my best friend or id simply post my shitty-ness on Facebook to let others pick me up. It did work quite well for some time but then the inevitable happens: you get lazy. You forget how it feels like to pick yourself up from the pieces of your life and you're lost whe there is noone to do it for you. Its not a fun feeling to realize that, when there is noone around, you're pretty much lost in your own world and mind.

It was then i realized that salvation cannot come from the hands of others-it must come from within. Yes, you should always have people in your life that pcik you up but you shouldnt plan on that happening 24/7. The only way that you can save your soul is by knowing how to pick up the broken pieces and start again or keep going. You have to be your very own salvation.

When the going gets rough, dont blast your radio with cries of S.O.S- save yourself!
