forgetful.

Sometimes I forget who I am.

I forget that I am a gentle person.
I forget that I love to craft.
I forget that I am a young woman.
I forget that I am fun.
I forget that I am a friend who genuinely cares.
I forget that I am a wife who loves to serve her husband.
I forget that I am in love with children and their love for little things.
I forget that I love the Lord more than this world.

I am forgetful.

Remembering these things about myself is always interesting.
I usually beat myself up over not being true to myself.

Then, I remember the most important thing of all.
I lose track of myself because I force myself to be consumed in daily tasks.

My life has been nothing short of chaotic for the past 7 months or so.
Between buying a house that needs many renovations and being 32 weeks pregnant, I tend to let my life lead me rather than me letting the Lord lead my life.

Here's to realizing that simpy living life is not the most important thing.
The meaningless tasks, financial stability (or abundance), school, house renovations, clothes, etc. that we make out to be so very important in day to day life just don't really matter when you start remembering who you are, what is important, and what will help you lead an abundant life without needing worldly things to make your day a great day.

Here's to realizing that God is the most important thing.
Here's to remembering who we are: children of the Lord.
