Stress

So a few interesting facts about stress...being over stimulated to stress can weaken your immune system and over time makes you more susceptible to chronic diseases such as hypertension, high blood pressure, chronic fatigue, gastrointestinal disorders and even premature death. I don't believe in premature death, because as a Christian, I believe that God has allowed us to live a certain number of years, weeks, maybe even just a few brief moments. We can't merit anymore years or end our life early with out Him knowing and allowing it. That said, we have a choice how to live. We can choose to surround ourselves with stressful relationships and jobs ending up 6 feet under with preventable diseases if we only chose another way of life.

I am at a cross roads. Do I continue traveling on the path of least resistance or do I mix it up and try something new to save my health in the long run? Do I make my decision based on the desires of others or what is genuinely best for me?

BAH. decisions.
