Life is Great !!!

I decided that tonight at 1 am would be a wonderful time to write something. Partially because I need to, and the other, partially, is because my head is spinning from homework and I wont sleep till some of it is unloaded. I cant seem to finish my homework until tomorrow or Thursday. I have had a mental writers block since Sunday. So this can also be an exercise to hopefully break down that blockade up there and let me continue with my crazy life. How do you like that justification? ha ha ha.
Life out here in Nebraska is great! I am finally in school and doing well so far. Especially in my math class. Those who know me well can attest to the fact math is NOT my strong point in academics. I currently have a 98%!!!! hooray for me!!! I pretty excited about it. My church calling is awesome too. I am in the relief society presidency and loving it! It gives me the opportunity to reach out to girls and get to know them. Which is nice since I am still trying to "friend" people in the ward. I never thought that all those experiences in Delta would have prepared me to tackle this calling. It definitely absorbs my extra time. What little is available of it. :)
Last month marked a year of visiting back here for a friends wedding. I recently recalled an experience I had during that visit. I was sitting in sacrament meeting and suddenly felt this overwhelming feeling that I was going to end up back in this ward. The ward I was attending is the singles ward I am now in. Funny huh? I had completely forgotten that small moment. It is funny how the Lord works. I would have never thought that feeling would actually make itself into a reality. As far as I was concerned Utah was where I was going to be calling home for a while. How wrong I was!!!!
Each day something happens where I am consistently reminded that the Lord wants me out here. I have seen miracles in my schooling and in other areas of my life because of my choices to follow the promptings of the spirit.
I also realize that I am still growing, and maturing. I am beginning to handle situations differently and I am learning patience. slowly..... But still learning the principle of it.
Life is great!!! I don't care who you are or who is reading this but I want you to know that I appreciate my life with all the curve balls and ups and downs I have been through. Life is precious to me and it kills me when people talk their life down. You should love it a lot more. Your life is a gift from our Heavenly Father. You are here for a reason too you know. If you are finding life difficult go out and serve someone in need of a cheerful smile!! Find a hands on project to keep you busy, or just call me and I'll cheer you up. But whatever you do always remember life is great and is worth living!!!!!
