come to the fountain.

I was at work today, I am surrounded by really helpful people.
Everyone helps each other out, I Love it.

We got talking about washing, and the habits, I am in.
You know the clothes, that aren't dirty, but you don't want to put them away, well I asked my friend if she does this, and she does.
We rewash them.

This got me thinking about the cycles that we face, some of us, have "washing'' to sort out.
So I got home from work, and I stopped myself, doing this habit.
Then I went out and visited my friends horses and I loved it.

Sometimes we think we need to have it all together, before we come to Christ, or our friends, or loved ones, and are too afraid to show the cracks. So we put on all sorts of masks and hats, to wear, because you believe that it works.

It does for a while, but as you wear these ''outfits'' you get so accustomed, to it, that you can't really go with out.
You might have one, mask, one fancy mask to wear on ''good occasions'' and you just think it's fine to go about doing this.

What if you get tired from wearing it?
 What if, the masks are addiction?
what if, they are secrets, because you believe, that you won't survive if you do this?

I am not blaming you, I have my masks, but as I get older, I've hoped for things, things and haven't got them.
I watched while my friends get them.

For Christians, you get told '' you just need more faith, you need this, you need that?

What if it's a bad day?  we can all have bad days.
It' normal part of life, but it's when we see a pattern of bad days, that, spiral us down ward.
Or circumstances.
I've had some of those, quite an unhealthy doseage, but we all get them , because we are human beings, it's to be expected. please don't struggle alone if you're just plain tired of life.

There are no quick fixes, steps, to not fail at life.
You haven't failed, you're not a failure, your a winner.
You might think you don't know me, or what I've gone through.
that is true I don't.
But I do know that, the masks, the ''outfits'' that we wear, gradually wear thin and out, and we can not trust in them.
They don't work.

We all face giants in our lives, for me, it was trusting myself, after a pretty server breakdown.
Some days, I think back to what set it off, my parents, were wondering, where, the wheels came off.

I'm still on my high, and won't probably ''come down'' for a while.
I might never come down.
I am totally fine now, I've made some life choices, to make me return to normal.
We all face unbelief in our lives, just how far we go, till it's dangerous. thinking that we're on a bungee cord, and we can just bounce back, to normal.
I wasn't on that bungee cord, I was in it, with me, on the other end, having my ankles around this breakdown.

The stigma, around it, is still there.
In my life, I've come to the conclusion, that you can't ''fake it to you make it'' that won't work.
So my friends, come to your fountain, no matter what it is.
Come to the grittiness, that life is hard, it's what we do that either helps our hinder ourselves.

Please don't go down any dangerous paths, that you regret later in life.
That's me for today.
