God didn´t bless me so I can backslide, He didn´t give me a status so that I can become a statue.

Patience Johnson
About This Quote

When I was younger I used to believe the world was beautiful and everything was perfect. But, as I grew up, I started to realize that everything was not real. I realized that the world is not always beautiful and that people are not always perfect. God blessed me with talents to do things that will make me happy, but He did not give me talents to just let them go. He did not bless me so that I can backslide, but so that I can use them for better things.
