Learning.....
Sometimes you need a new start. Sometimes life is so daunting that it seems like nothing or no one will help pull you through. Sometimes it seems like your barely holding your head slightly above the water line in life. Sometimes life gets so hectic and so stressful that you forget to focus on the most important things that life has to offer you.
If someone would have told me 4 years ago to the day that my life would be what it is currently I don't know if I would have believed them. I mean how could a girl from such a small town end up in the city the "Mormons" created and become a member of their church? If you would have told me that I would eventually enter the temple and be sealed to someone that is everything and much more than I ever expected in a husband, I wouldn't have believed you for a moment. As it stands all these things have happened and more.
Living in Salt Lake opened my eyes to so much, I learned who I really was, what my passions were and how to make a name for myself in this crazy world. I learned that sometimes the people who leave the biggest impacts in your life are people who are in your life a short time. I learned that my past wasn't who I was and didn't dictate my future. I learned that sometimes family is who you pick and not the people you share blood with.
Being back in this small town has made me realize just how much I want to go back to the comfort of home and that home isn't where I spent the first 20 years of my life. I learned that no matter what happens that the people who really matter in life could care less about how you look, what your convictions are and what you choose to do with your life.
I learned that looking at the temple is the most calming thing in the world and that within it's walls life doesn't seem as hard. I learned that the people who attended my sealing were the people who matter. I learned that seeing 4 of the most amazing people waiting for me in the Celestial Room of the Louisville temple were the people that I want to spend eternity with.
I learned that no matter what happens and no matter how angry I get with him Heavenly Father is always there and that he won't leave me, even when I've left him. I've learned that small prayers during my day make things so much better, especially in the middle of a crisis.
Starting a new year with a new purpose is something that might just become something that can change my life.
