Lost in the Sauce

Lost in the sauce - an existential state of uncertainty defined by transcendent, even blissful, confusion

My name is Kennedy, and I am indeed lost in the sauce. I graduated from college in May of 2017, I should be out living my best life. In actuality, I feel like I'm just going through the motions. Scrolling instagram, constantly comparing my journey to others is slowly compromising my spirit. I want to be great, like I "assume" everyone else is, but frankly, it ain't easy.

I think social media has enhanced the need for instant gratification, but that's not how the real world works. Sis, I'm aware. We live our entire lives wishing, wanting, and waiting. Comparison can kill you. I realize the grass is greener where you water it, but sometimes I feel like other people got to start with sod, and I got grass seed. I often find myself asking God why not me. I have to remember 1 Corinthians 3:6-7, " I planted the seed and Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow.…"

God rewards those who are faithful. In order to be faithful, I can not be fearful, fulsterd, or faltering. I have to do and be my best, or else I will not succeed. God will not allow me to grow if I can't control and be okay with my current circumstances. I know y'all have heard " To whom much is given, much is required." God only gives to those who are ready. Perhaps he knows that I am not ready.

Becoming an adult takes some self reflection & self awareness. Some lonely days & nights. Some good & bad days. But WE will get through them.

This post is for those of you may be too afraid to admit that you're lost, confused, or even stagnant. I see you. You are the answer to your own question, your own problem, and your own solution.

If you've got a goal, write it down on real paper and watch it happen.

I believe in you. You got this. We got this

Love,
