Character Mood Ash Ketchum

 

So, Most of the time I’m pretty hyped. Reason being, there’s so much for me to be hyped about! Recently every morning I’m up like, ‘Today’s the day!’ To further my skills, to get better at the things I love, to get closer to my dreams. I’m going to be honest, I’m not a big fan of things like school since they distract me from all of that. But, some days even school hypes me up! Because, I like to challenge myself, to have a goal. Even if I don’t always actually achieve it.

Like, finish High School before the age of thirteen. That goal helped me to finish fifth-seventh grade math in one year. And, that in of itself was a miniature goal. I realized I was behind in math and was like, whoa no!

Have I moved that fast in school recently? No, it was like a once in a lifetime thing so far but I treasure it as an accomplishment. It reminds me that when I set my mind to something I really can do it. You know, God willing. Because that’s also something I remind myself of, though I try to stay hyped sometimes it brings me down. My dreams might not come true, God has His own plan, right?

But if none of us know His plan, then technically, my dream could be in it, right? I feel like assuming that whatever God’s plan is for you will not be what your dream is, makes Him seem a little like a party wrecker. 

Here’s the thing, His plan might not be my dream, but I try to remember that His plan will be good. In the end, it will be good. I might not be happy the whole time, but I think that sometimes not being happy can make you treasure being happy even more.

And there’s always the thing about being joyful and thankful no matter what, which I find much easier now because I really feel like without Him I wouldn’t be able to enjoy life at all.

So whenever I am psyched for something, I want to try and remember to say thanks to Him for the fact that I’m young and I can be psyched. Even if my dreams and goals don’t all come to fruition, I feel like just planning and hoping and dreaming will create memories I’ll treasure no matter where my life goes. 

So, I’mma focus on now, you wanna do that with me? But I’m also going to keep being psyched about the future. Because who knows? It could be a lot brighter than I even dream it’ll be.

Thank God for the fact that we don’t know what’s coming in our lives, and therefore, everyday is a new adventure. That’s a whole other thing. Every day is somehow different. I could never write a story that details every single day of every single person on the entire earth for their entire lives. But God can. I think that means to me at least, that His plan for my life is totally thought through, no plot holes. And that these dreams aren’t a plot-hole. They may not come true, but I think I have them for a reason, whether that’s to give me joy now, to give me hope for the future, to give me just something to do. I don’t know.

But I’m grateful for these dreams. Whether or not they come true.

So, that whole paragraph of deep-thinking proves I’m at least a bit of a philosopher. And being a philosopher often means that when you get even the tiniest bit of joy, you analyze it until it fades to depression.

But philosopher or not, when it comes to the future…

                 I’m still so psyched!
