Today I realized: Mind over Matter

There is a particular situation in my life that I am somewhat unhappy about, and occasionally think of actions I could take to escape the situation.

Last night I had a terrible nightmare/stress dream about it though. And I realized that you can't escape something you carry with you in your dreams.

I think this is one reason why God wants us to forgive (although his patience with us is an even better reason). There reaches a point where you are only hurting yourself by holding on to something. By stressing about something, worrying about something, being angry about something, all you can do is hurt yourself.

And that is why I will choose to let things go. Again.
