Why me?

I was having the WORST day.... :)  I was grumpy and definately not looking on the bright side.  There was a point in the day where I heard that inner promt...  you know, the one that tells you that everything is going to be alright...  Well, I brushed it away.  I wanted to mope.  :)  Yeah, that's right, I'm pathetic.... if you didn't already know...  Anyways, it is interesting how things can turn around without you even noticing.  I am thankful for that.  All of a sudden, "Why me" became "Why ME?"  I don't know if that translates in text, but it was a good thing.  Instead of all the thoughts about things that I don't enjoy in my life right now, all the good and amazing things I have started to creap in.  Things like this...
And this....
Things like.... a body that allows me to go and do whatever I want.
                     a strong desire to learn, that keeps me going even when I feel like I am not enough.
                     a faith that makes me feel close to my Heavenly Father.
                     a country where I am free to live how I want.
                     two sets of parents who love me no matter what.

I really could go on and on....  but I won't.  I am just saying...  This day turned out way better than I thought it was going to.  :)  Oh and I finally hung our family picture... (with my new hammer, of course!)
(I didn't want to take it out of the frame and scan it, so I took a picture of it on the wall.  haha)
Well, Taylor got home earlier than usual.... so we are going to watch us some LOST: Season 6... The Final Season.  Yay!

  2. Isn't it amazing how our Heavenly Father reminds us in small subtle ways how blessed we really are, especially when we're having a bad day.

  3. Yeah. Sometimes it feels like a kick in the butt... but this time, it was a gentle nudge. And I felt a whole lot better. :)
