Miscellaneous Thoughts
January 12, 2012
It has been a really strange month for me .. feels productive, yet, stagnant.
Anyway, I AM EXCITED to share that I finally finished reading the Bible! Ya. It has been a goal like every year for awhile now, but finally, finally (after pushing back timeline 5+ times since July), I can say I’ve finally finished cover to cover! It’s crazy, because the beginning was harder – but the last few books of the New Testament… wow everyone should read it, because it’s so intense!!
In other news, I finally made the observation and have to come to accept the fact that I eat more (junk) food when I’m stressed/unhappy. Some of my friends have no appetite when they’re stressed, and I guess I wanted to be like that too – what a natural alternative to dieting. I know – you shouldn’t do it. Don’t do it! Don’t stress yourself to be thin, because that shouldn’t be the point. But anyway, it wouldn’t even work for me because I realized I work the opposite way. I binge eat. Even though I am stuffed, and full (beyond full), my mouth is still craving something…mmm food. Okay. So, I have to stop using food to escape now that I’ve realized this. sigh.
Also, Facebook has been getting on my nerves these days. It’s getting more and more cluttered. I don’t like that. I need to go on that thing less, and focus on living more! I know I’ve shared about my bad tendency to use Facebook to judge my friendship before.. I guess I’m still struggling on that one.
Lastly, I really like this video below. Reminds me that I want to love Jesus more, not self-righteousness.
“religion says do, Jesus says DONE” – my fave part!
