Lately, I have been feeling very thought provoked. I was looking online and different quotes and tying to find one that was describing how I was feeling. Here is what I found:
"Love the moment. Flowers grow out of dark moments. Therefore, each moment is vital. It affects the whole. Life is a succession of such moments and to live each, is to succeed." - Corita Kent.
Things don't always go as you plan, but they always seem to work out for the best and the way that they are suppose too. We get so caught up in our darkness, that sometimes we don't open our eyes to see the flowers that have come out of it. We forget to look at the blessing that are there infront of us while we are going through our trials.
I feel that lately I have been so caught up in my own "darkness" That I have forgotten to see how truly blessed my life is. Don't take this the wrong way, I am not depressed or anything wierd like that, but there always seems to be some sort of personal trial that we are faced with. Something that we are going through that tries our faith and we have to remember what is truly important and that it will work itself out in its own way. That we will live through these moments and be better for it. I really have so many amazing things to be thankful for. I have a wonderful family, amazing husband, great friends, the gospel, the cutest nieces and nephews on the planet and million other things that I could name. As I said before, Flowers come out of dark moments and I have the most beautiful ones of all.
If your read all of this you are a champ! Thanks!

aww so special
well put chels! love it! you are blessed and so loved!
I know what you mean.... life is often NOT what we expect, and pretty hard at the same time. It's important as you said to notice the things we HAVE, and be grateful. How can Heavenly Father bless us if we are focused on what is wrong, and not on what he has done for us?
Things have been challenging over my way, so I am with you.
Thanks for the reminder that there is always something good we can look for :)
