Just breathe.

I can't spin.
Not the stationary bicycle kind of spinning...but the stand in the middle of the room and turn in circles kind of spinning.
I can't swing either. It makes me dizzy.
All that movement, blurriness, inability to focus...yep. I get sick.

What a week.
I feel like I am on a merry-go-round...so yeah...a little woozy.
My emotions have been stretched and pulled and my sleep has been fitful and hurried.
I would like to "exit the ride to your left please"...please.
But I can't 'cause life is just like that. It's the sum of all those factors...the choices I make, the choices others make, the words that go out of my mouth (or keyboard) that can't be snatched back, the physical and emotional pain that ensues.
And yet I must push through, make better choices, guard my heart and my tongue, keep my emotional balance.
Care for those around me, no matter how taxing and difficult. 

And breathe.
In and out. Depending on God and His Holy Spirit to strengthen and enable.
And cover me in grace...
Thank you Jesus.
