Copastetic.
Cool, Calm and Collected – I am, or so it appears.
The perception is I have it altogether.
It's been that way for years.
I have no desires, no needs unmet,
no doubts or worry, no reason to fret.
Everything is "Surface Fine"
I'm cool, I'm smooth as a baby's behind
I don't need you to rock this boat.
Keep your turbulence at bay.
Don't bring those changes or waves my way.
I like this "pseudo peace" in shallow water.
Yell at me? Why I ought to!
I realize I row my boat but I'm getting nowhere,
gaining no ground
I am spinning upside down, round and round
Drunk with the illusion that I am getting along,
safely cruising - so far gone.
Yes, I am stagnant; so why won't you let me be?
This is the closest I've ever known of peace…
with no relief and no time to spare.
I chop it up to I just don't care.
Unaware, that I am hurting everyone including myself.
I have to admit this can't continue…
Lord, I need Your help!
Have you ever been so complacent with a bad situation that you are satisfied to stay in the mess so you avoid the conflict that resolve will bring? Have you walked the same path so long that it feels like it's right, so you just keep treading, over and over again? Do you feel like you are in a vortex, perhaps stuck in "Ground-hog's Day", repeating the same lame while playing the blame game (it's everyone else's problem, but yours) Clearly, they all need to get the clue – until one day you realize you've been clueless and You are comfortably uncomfortable with your state in life?
GET UP, GET OUT, DO Something! Acknowledge where you are, access where you want to go, and advance to where you want to be. Take ACTION, NOW!
Faith is action. You can love until you are blue in the face, but until you demonstrate that love, you are just blue and so am I. It takes your actions to tell the truth. Whatever a man thinks, he does. If you want the situation to change, be the change in the situation. You dictate your circumstances. You choose your thoughts, your path. You have free will and you decide who you are walking with, who you are helping, and who you choose not to enable. This life and its choices are YOURS. Choose wisely. Think to yourself, "What would Jesus do?"
Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth. Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee. Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. ~Proverbs 4:5-7
TGBTG!
