Lame Title... Burnout!
A close friend tells me that my Blog Titles couldn't get any lamer. I've never tried to be lame with them :$ hahaha but I guess this one will qualify as being lame.
But in all reality this isn't going to be a happy or hopefully lame blog.
Something has clicked in me. Something I have really hope wouldn't click.
I blogged about it earlier, and it's finally happened. I was sitting in front of a computer today.
And nothing....
There was nothing there apart from just uncomfortableness. I couldn't think, couldn't get motivated, just felt dead. Completely dead. I'm sitting here writing this and just feel dead, if it wasn't for talking/keeping in touch with people, I don't think I'd use my computer anymore.
I'm burnt out. I was hoping after getting back from Canada I would take some time off, and would feel better, but just feeling dead. A really close friend of mine has told me that I've just been really upset since being back. and well for me, that hurts, like I'm not at all upset at this friend, I’m glad she was that honest and just upset that someone had thought that of me.
So I guess I just really have to take some time, more time...
And just wondering, anyone out there just felt that burnt out? That dead?
What did you do? What kind of things? Like apart from prayer etc...

I've felt that way before... and it took me some time to remember how I managed to get myself out of it. I'm pretty sure I actually had to get help from my mentor and other persons, took a lot of soul searching, prayer, and listening. But the important thing to remember is that it will pass, I think it's a phase some of us go through... and just to let you know, I'll be praying for you as you go through this... and if you ever need a very unbiased sounding board, you have me on your msn. Blessings and prayers,.

You may be feeling an extreme sense of disorientation after being away in Canada for a year. Now you are at a new stage in your life, but not sure what that will be or how it will emerge. The sense that God has something new but not knowing what that will be, or how to recognize it can leave you feeling numb. Keep looking for direction and when you emerge from the wilderness and its dryness you may just find yourself in the promised land ... to borrow a biblical analogy.
Faithfulness is the key in times like this. And looking for the little miracles that are actually preparing you for what is ahead.
