daydreams

I've never been much of a daydreamer. I guess maybe I do daydream, but more in the context of thinking about the future, not just letting my mind wander. But I feel like I'm daydreaming a lot lately. Actually, it's really bad. Everytime I turn around, my mind is in a state of nostalgia, going back to good memories of SF. It's to the point where I'm going to need to rein it in because it's not helpful. If this continues, I won't have to worry about whether or not I want to spend the next 4.5 years in school because I won't have the option- my performance will see that I don't finish. I need to be more diligent about not allowing myself to think about what I'm missing. It's hindering my progress here.

I've really had it bad the last few days, but I'm hoping that I'm working it out of my system. Because when I'm missing SF, I'm also missing ATL. I can't find my place here if I'm not paying attention. I know this is where I'm supposed to be. I want to bolster my resolve to thrive here. I don't want to get in the way of what God has for me in this place.

Cast your burden on the Lord [releasing the weight of it] and He will sustain you; He will never allow the [consistently] righteous to be moved (made to slip, fall, or fail). Ps 55:22 The Amplified Bible
