Quit

Forrest Gump Quit.

He had run for three years, two months, fourteen days, and sixteen hours. And then one day, in Mexican Hat, Utah, he quit running.



Why he ran and why he quit is never explained in the movie.  Sometimes in life we find ourselves doing things that we cannot explain.  

Sometimes there are things that we need to quit.  You will know it if there is.  Maybe it is something that is not good for you, and you will think that you should quit.  Maybe it is ok for others, but it is not ok for you.  Maybe it is hurting other people.

It is not easy to quit things that are a part of our lives, but it is ok to do so.  Sometimes our lives get better when we quit the things that are not good for us.  

Don't be afraid of change.  It is also perfectly fine to ask God for the strength to help you change.  I know many people who would tell you that God gave them the strength to change.  I believe in that.

And I remember the old saying, "we never change until the pain of staying the same becomes greater than the pain of change."

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
