"Yesterday I was clever, I wanted to change the world.
Today, I am wise, so I am changing myself."
–Rumi
2017 is coming too fast. I realise that life somehow has its own way to teach me, to be wiser and more mature each day. I've come up to a point in life, where I feel like, I may have spoken about things too much, too honest, thinking it too loud.
Too much means, I may have spoken things that was not supposed to be my business. I may have been too busy trying to fix someone else's problem which sometimes they didn't even bother to have one, but me, I've been too busy fixing theirs, and not realising that I have my own problems too.
This whole time, I thought that it's my responsibility to remind someone to change their life, because I thought sometimes we didn't see it, our issues, we have to remind each other. But in fact, it doesn't always seems that way. I often, hurt them, and fix nothing. There's a point in my life, when I realise, maybe I've gone too far. Maybe I've to stop this.
Then one morning, someone gives me that quote, which I believe it's not an accident. I believe that God wants to remind me, that I've to take care my own problems too. Sometimes, it's better to inspire rather than to talk. I feel like this whole time, I haven't completely practice what I preached.
"You have to practice what you preached."
All I really want, in this life, is to be nothing but a blessing to people around me. I want to inspire people, make them hope again. I want to help my best friends, to remind my family, to get to our destiny together. But I realise, that I may do it the wrong way.
But not I've realised, that.. the best way to remind people is to inspire them. I need to be God's compass in this life for others. I need to show Jesus' heart in me. I need to show God's blessings in me. I have to turn on God's filter, in my mouth, in my action, in everything I do, I do it with grace.
In this new year, I may do it differently than the previous year. I'm done making a resolution, yet I'm trying to make a deep conversation with my self, and it's called self-introspecting. I want to examine myself, what I really need to change. And why I did it wrong.
And above all, I want to upgrade my relationship with Jesus everyday.

"The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing."
–Psalm 23:1
You need to fear nothing Jess. You got everything you need. I mean everything. Everything. Jesus has got you covered. He promised to provide everything when I live in him. When I TRULY live in him. It's different. You will feel peace and fulfilled. You are complete. You need nothing else. You don't need acceptance from other. You know yourself, where you stand, and what you live for.
It's different when you are in love with Jesus.
And you know it very well.
Be with Jesus. All the time.
He's the best. He's the only one. Always have, always will.
