A Letter To My Anxious Heart

Jay Mantri

To my anxious heart:

Be still.

Breathe.

Believe.

Hope.

Pray.

It is well. I know you are weary, but trust in the Lord. Give your worries to Him. I know this isn't easy, but it is worth it.

You will graduate.

You will get a job.

You will be joyful.

You will follow the Lord.

Love,

Valerie

To all of you out there with an anxious heart. I am standing with you.

If you too have an anxious heart, take a breath & be completely still for a moment. Allow your soul to be still. This may be hard, but try.

If your soul is weary, listen to this song & read this blog. I hope that you find as much comfort in it as I do.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
