Overwhelmed.

I am overwhelmed.

Every time I get overwhelmed, I get over-dramatic. Clearly, things are never as bad as they are at that very moment of overwhelming-ness. Tonight is one of those times. I have an exam in the morning. I feel inadequate in every area of my life. I have knots in my back. I haven't had enough coffee. I have a paper due Friday. I leave for New York for fall break on Saturday.

But. I have friends who love me enough to send me sermons, call me out on being prideful, and encourage me when I need it. I am inadequate, and I'm only enough because grace makes me enough. I try to control things, and it never works. I should stop that.

So. In this moment of overwhelming-ness, I'm stopping to pray. Stopping to refocus, and remember why I'm taking classes like Living and Working in a Multicultural Context in the first place. I'm stopping with the over-dramatic stuff. I'll survive.
