A little Facebook interaction...
My cousin Sedrick's Facebook status today read "Sedrick thinks he has life figured out....its a complete bittersweet...you are sad to be happy...bad to be good...you get hurt to love....you live to die...the bitter is the only way you can tell how sweet the sweet really is..."
He then proceeded to get comments from friends telling him to know appreciation in being content and to never allow yourself to get to high or to low and to give all your burdens to God. He was the only person on his team so I felt inspired to respond...
Me:
So you don't feel attacked cuz... I feel the same way you do but I don't believe that everyone will see it our way because that's not in their personality style. What's life, if all you have look forward to is being content. Feeling like you're on top of the world should be every person's dream and goal. Yeah you're going to hit your lows and feel burdened but I don't believe you give your burden to God, I believe you share that burden with God. Because it is through that burden that you discover what it feels like to fight through and truly feel free and light, like you HAVE made it to the top of the world. And the only reason you share that burden is to know that when times are at their darkest and you have no friends, to know that you are not alone and have help. It doesn't take stopping to realize that you're happy and appreciation is something we should feel everyday when we wake up but to know happiness is to know sadness, to know bad is to know good and to see darkness is to see light cuz. So you're right and they're right but you always shoot for the stars so if you fall you land on the clouds... I know that last line was cheesy LMAO.... And I'm out!
I would have said more but Facebook isn't the media outlet I should use to convey all of my thoughts. I just said a little something so my cousin would know that he's not alone in his thinking.
