I seem to have recovered from my earlier meltdown. Thank God! Now I am reflecting about how easy it is to get so absorbed in my own little crisis that I lose sight of the fact that there are others who are facing much larger hurdles right now than I've even thought about. My paper, although it is important to me, is not of life-changing magnitude. If it gets done (and it will because I am the QUEEN of pulling out of a skid before the crash) or not really won't matter too much in the long run. I have so much for which I am grateful, and I feel very small right now to have treated the result of my procrastination as if it were a monumental crisis. There are people all around us who have legitimate crises. Instead of praying for my paper to write itself, I intend to pray for those individuals. Please forgive me for being so self-absorbed. Really, I've got it pretty good.

Oh well we all know that there are pretty much millions of people we should be praying for every day that have it worse than us.. but it doesnt stop us from having some little crises sometimes. We are all human and when it seems like the things in our world are too much to bear, we sometimes forget about all else but our own problems. I COMPLETELY understand with the school stuff. April is going to be an extrememly busy month for me.. but no worries, we will make it! :)
