just thinking

So I am sitting here under the hair dryer getting my hair done by my sis n law and I can't help but think...am I happy with my life? I don't know if it's the smell of the haircolor, the heat from the dryer, or the monotonous drone of the contraption I am sitting under but I begin to wonder what have I done with my life? Every day we live our lives as though we are in a race to get things done yet in actuality accomplish nothing. I mean yes we get and go to work, do our jobs and all but what are we really getting done that is of any significance to ourselves or others? We interact with so many people on a given day that you would think that somewhere throughtout the blur of the day you did something or said something that meant more than anything to at least one person who crossed your path. What about the things we don't do? I have spent many a night laying awake wondering what could I have done differently to make someone else's day better? I like to think I live my life according to God's plan yet many times I can't help but think that there's gotta be something more for me. I miss being in the classroom with the kiddos and yet have I done anything about it? Do we do all we can to reach our goals and dreams or just give up when it seems like too much work? Why don't we follow our hearts and do what makes us happy so that in turn those around are also touched by our giving hearts? I don't mean seeking selfish satisfaction in our lives but to look for a way to fulfill dreams that make us better people closer to God. I truly believe that when you give yourself to God and are pure of heart that anything is possible. The only thing is that sometimes it can be challenging to do the right thing by God especially when it brings us happiness , because we all deserve to happy right? Well I have found that unless you live your life by God's laws and do right by Him then you are only fooling yourself into thinking you are happy when in essence it is nothing but the Devil taking control and taking you further away from your faith in God. It does not take much to find true happiness when you turn your faith to Him. He will never let you down so long as you ask that He will provide for you and then you have to believe it and only then will you receive your happiness.
