Wow, that was nearly a one month hiatus for me. Honestly, I was considering giving up on my tumblr and going silviathecar full-time. Yet, I am compelled to write a little something and today of all days, when I have an essay to write.

I have never been more freaked out by reality before. Seriously. The things that have been happening all over the world and the people dying and the different disasters taking place. I thought to myself, “what is worth living for?” Honestly, nothing came to mind. My job? A girl? My dreams? A car? Education? Nothing. Period. Nothing came close to Christ. If I have all these things and no relationship with God, it would mean absolutely nothing. My life would be empty, dull, and vain.

I just read one of my close friend’s blog post(rockabyeberry.tumblr.com) and there was something on there that struck me. Nobody lives forever(well on earth at least, or whatever (you) believe). So why live for today? Why live for the moment? I took a few minutes to think about the people around me. My grandparents, my family, my friends, my church. These people deserve my all and I don’t want to have to see them fade away without me doing my best. I will meet my Maker one day, and I would like to think that when that day comes, I would be content in my heart.

It’s ironic because I’m leaving for a funeral in 2 hours time and this is reality. Life happens. Death happens. But one thing remains. God.

It’s time to buck up, grow up, and take charge of life according to God’s rules.
