I wish I understood restlessness.... I am sure it is God trying to tell me something, but sometimes I am so restless that I can't sit still to listen to His still small voice. Maybe I am just afraid of the answer. Maybe I just keep myself wound tight in my human thinking that I can't make that connection. Maybe I rev up the unwanted restless feeling by dancing around the real issue. I know one thing being restless serves its purpose... to force us inside ourselves.
Oh yes I know more psycho babble, but when we can be honest and ask ourselves the tough question of WHY, then we are primed for growth. In my life, I would feel restless, get frustrated, distract myself from the truth and do what I could to will away the "restless" feeling. Without the WHY being addressed and answered, the issue could never be resolved. OUCH you mean I was sourse of my own misery? In most cases yes... I really perfected the art of misery and then laughed about it... hoping that laughing would soften the blow of perpetual unhappiness.
Growth hurts... at times depended on the fight we put up. I now embrace that restless feeling... no that was a lie. I just know when it comes, it is time to ask WHY....
