A lot happens in nine months. You get older, babies are made, and seasons change. You grow stronger, love better, and sing louder. People come and go. You have hurts and heal. A lot happen in nine months.
Whats happening in my nine months?
Deployment.
That sucks, I'm sorry, Let me know if I can help, Thinking and praying for you, Love you, at least he can call, I'm sure he'll be fine, and thank you. All are meant will full hearts from loving friends and family... but it doesn't kill the spider in the bathtub or take away the lump of worry in the back of your throat. The hard truth is that you come home to an empty house each night and wake up each morning to an empty bed. You cry ten times longer after stubbing your toe and lose your temper on close friends. Your on edge, hoping that someone will just fix the hole in your heart, but relief never comes.
But you know what else happens in nine months?
Change.
You grow stronger, learn more about yourself, and push yourself father than you thought you could. You believe in yourself.. you CAN make it though this. You cherish your lover a million times more than you ever dreamed you could. You live life.
I don't know about you, But I'm ready to live! Sure I can be sad and feel lonely.. but I can also create new things, play music, express myself in different ways, make friends, read more books, try weird foods, and travel. But most important, believe that through Him who gives me strength I WILL MAKE IT!!! So, a lot does happen in nine months.. some bad.. some good.. some easy.. some hard.. but these things are growing you into the amazing person you are.. these things define your strengths and weaknesses.. they make you stand apart on your own two feet.. they help you grow.
So what are you going to do with your nine months?
