LAYERS AND RINGS
 |
Nothing is ever as simple as it seems. Our lives intertwine with others, experiences stack on top of experiences. Somethings are wedged into place, while others seem like they are greased and as hard to hold on to as a pig covered in oil at a county fair.
Onions grow in layers, and like the unpleasant chore of removing layer after layer of an onion to find the beginnings of something in our lives, we may cry, we may resist, we may hesitate, but we keep going at a pace that we feel comfortable with... because the truth, the beginning, the search hopefully brings us to why we do, why we react, why we are, what we are, and what brought us to this time and place in our lifes' journey.
Some folks go to therapy because they don't know how to face things, or they can not go through it alone, or maybe it is an excuse not to change...oh I am going through therapy for that.
We all have layers and rings, the rings are just going around and around, never getting off the same merry go round of life, or going around the same block, or doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results.
Human nature likes familiar, likes it is what is it, most of us don't like the unknowns, the what ifs, the change of plans. Yet, some things have to change, some things have to happen, you must move and live and breathe and make an impact. Faith says ... What does Faith say to you? You already know what fear says, but what does FAITH say... layers and rings might just not be the stifling containing power of your life anymore. Layers might be peeled away, and rings, they just might be broken... hummm Faith, what does FAITH say to you? What Godly impact, does God have planned?
