I have decided to deactive my facebook account for awhile. Honestly I have felt like I've been out of control lately when it comes to facebook and that's not acceptable... it's gotta stop. I always used to say that I wasn't addicted but there is no denying it anymore. It's so much easier to get on and just zone out, but the effects of it on my family and spiritual life have been deadly. I have got to get back into control. Until then, I'm facebook detoxing. I'm going to get my priorities straight.
This evening was just a very dark/ugly moment for me and the spirit was definitely not in our home. I haven't been doing the things that I should be doing that bring the spirit and love. About five minutes after the peek up of the ugliest outburst I've had in a long time, I get a knock on the door. It was my visiting teacher stopping by with a plate of cupcakes. I just cried. Her timing was divinely inspired and perfect. I know that Heavenly Father sent her to our home because He knew I needed somebody to talk to (Justin was out working). I'm just so amazed how He sends people to help us out in our time of need. It felt so good to just vent and get the uglies out. I really appreciated her words of wisdom, hugs, and just listening. She even offered a prayer...which I'm so thankful for because I was in no mood to pray.
I am thankful that tomorrow is a brand new day and a chance to do and be better.
I have a huge stack of books that I want to read and since I'm not on facebook all the time (good...grief!) I can actually get those books read. :-D It'll be fun to see what a good facebook detox will do for my life.
I'll probably write a lot more on my blog! Whoot whoot.
Loves and hugs.
Dear Lisa. Don't be affanded but i so hate when you stop being on FB. I totally understand that you do it and i'm happy that you have a blog (and that you will write more often now) but it's so much fun to see the Family on fb. I miss you guys so much and it makes me still be part of the Family. I hope you'll be back someday and i hope that your will got stronger throught that! I love you and i love to hear from you!
ReplyDeletesomething i might said in the past but i have to say it again. I love your blog. I'm addicted to it. Everyday i just have a look if something new is in it. What i really like is that your written things are so honest. You write about your Feelings - the real ones and not just what mightbe other would like to hear. Days aren't always happy and perfect, with perfect Kids and a perfect Buddy. Even if i wish you won't have a bad day - it makes you human to have them too. Did you try oils as you had a bad bad day? Try them i use them all of the time for anything - love'em!
I want to hear more about the moving Thing:-) I so hope to be able to visit you soon!
I do love my Lis Sis!
Don't worry, I won't be off for long. :-D And I am SO GLAD that you like my blog so much! *Thank you, Tamara!* I never get sick of hearing that. Oh...good idea! I'll have to use the oils when I'm feeling down. Essential oils are the best! My favorite is lavender and balance. What's your favorite? Do you order monthly?
DeleteI love you too!
Hey you wrote about more blog entries:-) Where are they:-) I'm not ordering monthly anymore. It was to much for my. I like Serenety and Pepermint a lot :-) But I use Balanced Ground often for work. I put it on my rist like parfume and so can "sniff" on it all of the time:-) I even used oils on my dog *smile* and i love the fb Chat about using it with Larissa. To bad Do Terra doesn't have classes ect here in Switzerland:-(
