Roses & Thorns: A Moment of Transparency
So let's get all mushy-gushy and retrospective....
Trigger Warning - grief, death
Basically, I got an impression on my heart to talk about mental health very candidly. Honestly, I was hesitant but (I'm trying to say "Yes" to everything God calls me to do). I had a deep feeling to post this yesterday but I didn't -- I pushed it to the side. Yet, hindsight is always 20/20, yesterday my interview dropped and I didn't even realize because I've been so busy. The pull on my heart was because that would be the same day my interview got released. Also the same day, I lost out on a big opportunity 🙃 Life, right?
Although acknowledgement of my talents are great, it came at a cost. These talents were watered with tears. I never want to be the person to downplay pain to seem flawless. These "thorns in my side", these "heartaches" I carry them everyday, but I persist through a power that isn't my own.
Watch "The Mentor You Didn't Ask For" by Steven Furtick if you have the chance. (It gave me the strength and conviction I needed to release this)
Many Blessings.
