2016: A Year of Learning and Thankfulness

2016.
This year has definitely been a year of learning.
Learning who I am and who I'm suppose to become.
I've learned this year that I can do anything that I set
my mind to do and that I just need possible.
 I'm not who I was a year ago and
I've learned to be okay with that.
I'm coming to terms with the fact that I'm a totally different
person than I was even two years ago.
I've learned that life goes on.
And I've learned that things don't always go as planned.
I've learned that things happen for a reason
and that things happen in Heavenly Father's time, not ours.
I've learned that our plans don't always go accordingly and to
be grateful for every moment because we won't be able
to get those moments back.
This year I've also learned to be thankful.
Thankful for my family, who support me, in every decision
I make.
Thankful for my warm home on winter nights and a cool home
on those warm July days.
I'm thankful for the gospel and for the testimony that I have received
this year.
I'm thankful for this guy, named Griffin, who happened to walk
into my life when I needed him most. He's so thoughtful and really is the
most caring guy I've ever met. (he seriously deserves a post all to himself)
I'm thankful for education (no I'm not where I thought I would be, but eventually I'll get
there, remember it's His timing)
I'm thankful for the multitude of business opportunities that I've had and
surprisingly for the opportunities that I had to let die because it was becoming a toxin.
I'm thankful for every aspect of my life, the good/the bad/the ugly/the pretty
for without all of these things I would not be who I am today.

2016, you were a pretty grand year,
you're most definitely a year for the books.
But I'm sure 2017 will be an even grander year
 and I can't wait!

Don't Put Yourself Through That

It's not always easy deciding to stop loving something that you've loved for so long, that you wanted forever. The first few days you are strong about and then BAM it hits you like a ton of bricks. You immediately start crying and wish that it had worked out and you don't completely understand why it didn't. You get mad and frustrated. You had all these plans made, you had all of these dreams you two were going to put into reality one day. It's hard to give up something that you loved. But deep down you know it's for the best. You've struggled for so long but you have the faith that your Heavenly Father is on your side and He will only do what is best for you. So  Don't Put Yourself through   the heart ache of wishing things were different because that person was put into your life for a reason, you learned a lot from those months you were together and you should be thankful for them. Remember it's not always going to be easy, but w...
