Finals

I struggle every semester around finals. My "last minute" personality gets me into trouble, but somehow I survive. I don't know how I do....I always go into finals thinking that it might be the death of me (dramatic much?) but then it never is...

I also struggle with my ever present urge to complain and the small voice in the back of my head that keeps saying "You're so lucky....so very lucky". Because, despite all of my complaining about not sleeping and having stress, I'm going to school. I'm living the life countless people only wish they had. My biggest problem for the next four days is to check all the assignments off my list. Really? That is not a big problem in comparison with what other people are going through. It is all about the perspective. Who really cares if I fail this. God uses every opportunity and regardless of what I do (though I try my best), His will will be done in my life. It is out of my hands and into God's.

So when I get that (constant) urge to complain, I just have to remember that wow, I'm a truly lucky girl.
