My Keeper

In moment of truth we always reveal who we really are. Sometimes we're our own worst enemy, and sometimes we rise to the occasion, even though we all know tomorrow morning that the three of us will go back to being the most unapreciated people in the whole hospital.

I think everyday is made up of tiny little tests. Some are tests of character, some are tests of fortitude, others are tests of friendship. And if your lucky, when it really matters you'll pass with flying colors.

So often you feel like your alone on an island, whether its just that you cant bring yourself to make a really important decision, or if your waiting for an answer, of if you simply know a secret that you wish you didn't. For me, I was stuck on that island because someone else stuck me there. Its not always easy to do the right thing, like putting someone else's feelings first for a change, even if it goes against what you really want. Of course, theres always randifications. Even if you do the right thing, theres no guaranty that it will turn out the right way. Because even something as harmless as 20 to 30 drinks with your brother can end up biting you on your butt.

Psalms 43:18-19

Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
