#TheStruggleIsReal

So today as I walked in late to my Macro Economics class, I already knew that I would not be enjoying my day.  I can tell you right now, its not a smart idea to take Macro at 8am.  Just bad.  As my professor began class I pulled out my computer to take notes, as I usually do, but from the look of the slides, there wasn't anything important going on.  So, what is my first reaction to getting bored in class?  That's right!  My Facebook tab opens right up.  For some reason I felt really compelled by doing this.  Something tugged in the depths of my stomach saying "don't do it."  I wanted to write this and sorta discusses it on here.  I'm not 100% sure why I felt that way, maybe because I'm already failing the class and I should pay better attention.  In Hebrews 13:17 it says "Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account.  Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you."  I think that the context of this verse might have been the reason that I felt the way I did.  Obey and listen to your leaders, because they are looking for your best interest.  I know for a fact that this is not being portrayed in the correct way in our society.  time after time I see children and young adults alike being extremely rude to their elders, and it sickens my stomach.  I don't want to run out to be one of those people.  Ia am going to make it amy commitment for the next week to not get onto Facebook/Instagram while in class.  There is no reason for it and it is extremely rude to my professors.
