Hidden messages


I'm pretty sure these lyrics are about God but I think I can extend the meaning to apply to my life:

"Wait, I'm wrong
Should've done better than this
Please, I'll be strong
I'm finding it hard to resist

So show me what I'm looking for

Save me, I'm lost
Oh Lord I've been waiting for you
I'll pay any cost
Save me from being confused
Show me what I'm looking for
Show me what I'm looking for
Oh Lord 


What am I looking for? What am I waiting for? Seems like I should know by now....


You know what this picture is? 


Yes...it's a puzzle..but the key is that it's incomplete. There is piece of puzzle that is missing. Such a critical piece missing....

Hidden messages: 

My life may not always seem very together but...
Everyday I try to pretend to pull it off that...
Everything is ok but then I know...
That it's not always the case... 

My mind is always racing and thinking about...
Everything else except my task at hand, why...

Is it that I'm always so distracted with such...
Non-sensical things, I think my...

Problem is that I always try to look at the... 
Overall picture and never focus on the...
Really hidden details and messages...
That are...
Laid out for me, just sitting in front of me...
And I manage to miss the details of the message because they are...
Never that apparent to me...
Details are not my forte. 

Can you see behind the distractions to get the real message?


Looking down: 

Why is it that people can so easily walk by one another and not even acknowledge the presence of the other person? We do this so effortlessly and so often. Not even a glance at the other person's face. We will just naturally move to the side to prevent collision as we breeze by each other, but no eye contact, eyes glued to the floor. Well, at least I do that anyway. And during the rare times that I actually look up to study the other person's face, they aren't looking back at me. Even when I try to smile at them...nothing.

Is it sad that we don't acknowledge each other's presence? But then again, I ask myself, what would even happen if we did? Nothing. We would just briefly exchange glances and keep walking along our merry way anyway. So, I guess there's no point.

There's probably no point in this entire "looking down" section of my blog. I don't even know myself what the point of me ranting on about this is. I think I tend to look too much into little details that don't matter (like this topic!) and then overlook things in my life that do matter. I need to get my priorities straight...
