Runaway

I'm trying to stay encouraged. Every day that goes by I imagine where I could be. However, I have to change my mindset to focus on where I will be. But is it just me, or is it hard to see the future when you are stuck in difficult present time. Why are we so afraid of the future anyway. From childhood, we plan for it, and live for it, but in the back of our minds, we are afraid of where we'll end up. Is it a fear of failure or disappointment or growing up all together? I'll be the first to admit that despite all my plans as a child, this is not the future I wanted. But this is where I am, and I have no other choice. We must be satisfied with the life we have. Whether it's where "God" wants us to be, or where fate has lead us, live for today, and where you'll end up, only time will tell.
