I know that most of this is in my head and that it will all truly be fine. I know that I don't have to have all of the answers and that I don't have to have my whole life figured out right in this very second. But I still can't help but worry.
I'm not one to walk around quoting Bible verses but I do keep a few in my heart and one is truly been playing over and over again in my head this month:
I'm not even sure if it's an actual Bible verse but I have always believed this to be true.
When I graduated high school I went off to college not knowing a soul. I wasn't worried about making friends because I knew that I would make a ton of friends and I did.
When I moved to LA, I never worried about finding a dance job. I just knew that the right one would come along. And it did.
When I picked up and moved to Dallas (the first time), I didn't worry about finding a job or meeting people. I knew the right job and the right friends would come along. And they did.
The point is, everything in my life (up to this point) has worked out. Maybe not always the way I want it to but it does work out. God has always kept a good eye on me and made sure that I am taken care of and I know he will continue to do that. I just need to keep my faith and really trust that everything will be ok just like it always is.
I think your last few paragraphs are definitely the way you should look at things!! I totally understand what you're going through - I moved to Boston not knowing anyone except for my sister (which yes family is really impt) and one other friend!! I didn't have a job, a place to live or anything...so it was scary, but I knew it would make me the happiest I could be to live in Boston - which is what Dallas is for you!! It's home and it will get you to your happy place!
ReplyDeleteI understand your fears...but I think replaying that quote "Let go, and let God" is what's going to help calm your worries. Things have a way working themselves out, and change can be a beautiful thing.
ReplyDeleteGirl you are going to be FINE! I completely understand the worry and fear of starting over but it's not always a bad thing! Sometimes it can lead to amazing things! Like Biana said, that last paragraph you wrote is how you need to approach things. You got this and you are going to do amazing things!!

No need to be worried girl, everything is going to be fabulous and fine because you are awesome and everyone will love you :) i'm positive! i was terrified of moving overseas, and i had my 3 best friends waiting for me, so its always scary no matter what!
ReplyDeleteI moved to MI just over 4 years ago, I didn't move quite as far as you did but in my mind moving from one state to another is mostly the same thing. I didn't know anybody and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I made to date. It's going to be scary but life has a way of working all the kinks out, eventually. You got this!
ReplyDeleteI've moved a lot in my life and worried a ton about it. I do always find that, like you say, things DO always work themselves out. You WILL make friends, you WILL find a job, and you WILL do well. I just know it;)
