Never Go Back

Never Go Back by Kyle Eggleston Sometimes, you gotta accept the fact that certain things will never go back to how they used to be. That’s an interesting thought. You can never go back in time to fix or change anything. It’s just not possible. We might want to go back in time and change anything, everything, but we can’t. Simple? Well not simple to hear, but very easy to say. So what do we do about all of this? Nothing. We do nothing. We can do nothing. You’d like to do something, but no that’s really not going to do any good in this life. So we wait. We wait for something to come along and hopefully we are able to anticipate the future. The future is all we can hope for.

Overthinking

Why is life so complicated at times? I’m not sure. Life just tends to happen the way it’s meant to. Now some might think I’m talking about destiny and that might be the case, I can’t tell you for certain.

Maybe life has it all figured out to some degree, then again maybe it doesn’t. There’s no way of asking life what it’s really up to. It doesn’t work that way, rather unfortunate!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Life has a way of making itself known to us. The music continues to play around on a never ending record player.

The music is basically another way of saying the same thoughts keep running through my head. It’s a metaphor of sorts. It simply keeps turning around without a proper introduction.

If the same thoughts run through my mind, how am I meant to control them? Yes, people have the ability to control their thoughts. I guess I’m talking about the ones on a runaway train of sorts.

Yeah thoughts aren’t always an easy thing to recognize. They can come and go with or without our blessing. That’s the way of things it would seem. No, I’m not saying it makes any sense. That’s simply how this life turns out from time to time.

Oh thoughts, you feel quite simple yet there is nothing further from the truth. Deep inner thoughts are difficult to get over. Yet life must go on. What else can be said about it?

Over analyzing life can have its drawbacks. I don’t know how else to explain it. Just a bunch of random thoughts repeating themselves over again in my mind. Not a terrible way to exist but not that great either! Eh, it is whatever it will be I guess!

Someday my mind will have to choose how it wants to be I suppose, or it could be like this for a very long time. I don’t know.

Life will find a way to figure all of this out, either that or I live my days confused as all get out. Something has to give, right? I just hope my sanity lasts a bit longer than anything else!

Didn't Sleep

 What's the point of sleep anymore if I can't sleep? I don't think I slept any good last night. I was awake at 3 am wondering to myself, what on earth am I doing awake? Yeah, that happened. It doesn't make any sense. Fortunately, it's the weekend. So, I can catch up on sleep tonight. I don't have to be anywhere tomorrow, so it's a good opportunity to actually sleep for once. Whatever the case, I hope I'll be able to fall asleep and stay asleep. We will see what happens.

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...
