Today isn't Tomorrow, but That will Never Come

Well, I didn't post Tomorrow--but you have to admit that now is better than never.
I have been thinking. And yes, I do know that that's a "dangerous activity."

I have been dangerously busy recently, trying to keep up with my life and all. What bothers me the most, though, is the way that when I get busy, I start to get jealous. Jealous of those girls that have "it all." And, although that "all" changes rather rapidly and never actually gets a definite description, I just know my life would be better if I had some of it. Poor, Poor me.;)

Self-pity is really pretty dangerous, you know. It's like a spiral that never ends and keeps getting larger and larger and all starts with the thought of "It's just not fair!" or something similar. But life isn't fair, and that, in essence, is really a pretty good thing.

I mean, do you WANT life to be fair? If life was fair, we'd all be in a pretty awful place right now, or, more probably, none of our universe would even exist. If life was fair, we sinners would have never been able to make it this far, and most of the people on earth would be dead or almost dead. Abraham, who wasn't righteous, but had the faith of a righteous man, would probably never have been given God's covenant. There are only two or three men that I know were described as righteous in the Bible--Noah and Enoch, I know, but can't find any scriptures for anybody else. Of course Jesus was righteous, but remember that in a just world that Jesus would never have come down to earth to give us a second chance, now would he?

Therefore, when I feel low, or in a mood of self-pity: I need to remember that life really isn't fair--and I definitely don't want it to be.

Thank you,
Sarah
