Tough Stuff

You know, recently I have been faced with a lot of crap. I have been stressed and busy and constantly exhausted. I have had to deal with a lot of problems, not just my own. But I have been helping some of my friends get through tough stuff. I have had to deal with disappointment, loneliness, anger, frustration, sadness, and pain. And it's all hitting at once. But you know what? Honestly, who doesn't face problems? And who can honestly say that they only go through one thing at a time? It always seems that everyone gets handed the crap all at the same time. And if I really think about it, my problems really aren't that bad. Sure, they are hard for me. But I know people who go through things that are ten times worse. I can't even imagine. I am so lucky to have a family that loves and supports me. Some people fight with their parents constantly. Some people feel like their parents hate them. Some people turn to drugs and alcohol. They start getting addicted and then they lose control. And then they get depressed and start becoming suicidal. Honestly, I can't imagine being at such a low place in my life. It makes me so sad to think there are so many people out there going through real hell. It humbles me and makes me realize that my problems aren't the end of the world. At all. I just wish I could help more of the people out there who are really hurting. I am doing my best and I am praying. But I don't know. Sometimes, I just wish I had more control over things like that. But I guess that's why we pray to God. Because He has all control over it and He will take care of us. I don't know why I felt the need to ramble about this, but here it is anyway. If you read this, please pray for those people you know or don't know that are going through hard times. :)
