Since coming back home, I've noticed that I really want to slip back into old habits. I find myself slipping in to complacency, when everything in me is screaming and wanting to stop it. It's like I'm caught in this cycle of the Bubble. The "Bubble", Peachtree City, the place where almost everything is at surface level. It's like a black hole, and it's rapidly sucking me in. I want to fight it with everything in me, but I feel paralyzed, helpless, and immobilized.
I'm stuck, I don't want to be where I am. IMPACT has made me discontent with the definition of life people around me seem to be living by. After reading Pickett's blog, I realized she verbalized exactly what I've been trying to. People are content with existing and surviving...not LIVING. So I am trying to live in a place where living is not really living, but just surviving. Trying to make it through, trying to get by. No one seems to really enjoy life anymore. It's like it's a chore. A requirement. Not something that people love. I think that people, especially Christians, have lost their love of life, and lost sight of why they are living.
So, I am stuck in neutral, trying to get into drive. I am fighting complacency, and trying to discover a way to live in a place where living, true living, is not normal. I want to redefine what living looks like to the people around me.

Don't get sucked in. They may try to take you, but hold your ground! You can do it, you've grown so much this last 9 months- don't let it all go down the drain. You have LIVED these last 9 months, not survived. You have infact, slapped survival in the face! Now thrive like I know you will. You are Morgan, and you are great, not on your own will, but because that's who He's made you to be- great. Now show Peachtree city your greatness! :) I love you and you will be in my prayers!
