I've been feeling down lately, for three reasons.
1.) A friend of mine had a heart attack and is in the hospital. He is in a coma. The doctors have said the prognosis is "grim." I've been praying a lot about the situation but I can't help but be upset that I might not see him again. I could never determine for sure if he is saved or not.
2.) I miss my girlfriend. She is gone forever. The Lord wanted the relationship to end, but I still can't help but miss her terribly. I'm still in shock that she's no longer in my life. Sometimes I go a few days without thinking about it, but then it hits again.
3.) School is stressful. It should be easy - I've always gotten excellent grades. But it isn't. I suspect that a combination of #2 and more recently #1 that is the cause of this. I feel like I have no control over my study habits. I could sit down and read the same page 50 friggin times and I absorb NOTHING. I failed two math tests which should be easy, but I completely choked.
Please offer any thoughtful advice and pray for the situation. I know there is a better day coming, but I need help getting through the hard times. Right now my existence feels so meaningless that I'd rather die and go to heaven.
