Good Grief.

I feel very strange posting such as this on my blog, mainly because I have never felt this type of loss.  However, I have friends and family that have and feel that this may help them...so, I had to share.  I reieved this off the family's page that I follow, The Sullenger Family.  Their story, along with others is very inspiring  to me.  I hope that if you read this, you can share it with those who might benefit from it.  http://byutv.org/watch/2151-311#ooid=F3Mnh5MTp_ECqGj7tM3ocwAhOVHDSicl

New Year's: Look Not behind Thee


As the month of January ends, I realize that I have not posted any pictures from Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Years.  I reflect on the time that I have lost and wonder and worry on how I can get that time back.  While I was looking around on the LDS homepage, I saw this video.  It hit me kind of hard and made me realize that I need to look forward  and not dwell on what I didn't do in the past.  I can not go back and fix what I have not done.  All I can do is concentrate on the future....so, that is what I will try and do.  I am not making any promises of post every day or even every week.  I hope to do the best I can do, and to be proud of those accomplishments. I have so much to be grateful for.  I could really never begin to express my love and appreciation to my Father in Heaven for knowing me and knowing what I can do and handle.  He knows me even when I don't think he does.  He trust me, even when I can't seem to trust myself, or even him really.  He loves me, when I can't love myself and I can't imagine why he would.  He hears and answers all of my prayers even though I don't always see the immediate answer, I know it is there.  I love him even more for that.  I hope to learn from Lot's wife...and not look back, but only look forward to what is to come.
