Now the title of this entry really has nothing to do with what i am going to write, because honestly i have no idea what it is im about to write here. One of the things i used to have to do in one of my writing classes was just write for ten minutes at the first of class and just write whatever it was i thinking, and it made for some pretty interesting thought processes. In a way im gonna kinda do that here, but try to make some kind of point and sounds important. It's amazing to me how life is the way that it is. It'f fasinating to me why god does what he does and how much his love is shown through what he does... now that could be debated upon depending on who you are, say you are from the little town of Epping, NH who goes to the little white community church on the corner of elm street and they are teaching that god is a vengeful god, he tries and works to make life miserable, trials aren't for us to learn from, they are only there to burden us and if god was a merciful god he wouldn't give us such trials. Coming from my point of view and from what i have been taught from a very young age, life if a beautiful thing! trials are to help us grow and understand who we are as children of god. It fasinates me! We meet people in our lives that in someway will either be a great benefit to us or will hinder our spiritual growth in many different ways. Lucky for me i count myself very lucky to have the people in my life that i do. One of which at this point in my life is becoming very important to me and it tends to be difficult to make myself kinda sit back and not do too much at once. i am happier, i want to continually be a better person, i want to make goals and meet them simply from the way that this one person is living thier life and it's a big example to me and it's something i want to have in my life. Looking at this situation makes me step out of any kind of mentality the little white church has and be very grateful that Heavenly Father would put such individuals in my life. Im happier than i've been in a long time, excluding the incredible joy felt while living in the New England states, cause it's hard to get much happier than that. Life is good!
"Im grateful for this day i have to live, for my health and for each breath i have to take in, im grateful, im thankful. Some days are not so great, when nothing seems to go my way, then i remember that i have no right to complain, it'd be a foolish thing to say, cause im blessed. Im grateful for these worn out shoes, im grateful cause at least i have a pair. Im grateful for the struggles in my life that i've had, cause its times like these that make me who i' am."
