This last weekend I had the opportunity to hear the Mormon Tabernacle Choir sing one of my favorite hymns, "Come Come Ye Saints," and as I was sitting there listening I was overwhelmed with gratitude for a line in the song and a lesson I continue to learn.
"And should we die, before our journey's through? Happy day, all is well."
How incredible were the early saints of the church? To have the faith to understand that regardless of the situation, when you put your trust in the Lord "all is well."
My eyes welled up with tears (surprised anyone? yeah I didn't thinks so!) and I thought about all the crazy things that have been on my mind lately and everything that was driving me crazy, stressing me out or making me worried. I thought about the whirlwind of a summer that I have had and about everything that is going to be changing in the next six weeks. And I thought about opportunities missed and opportunities taken. And then I thought of that incredible line; all is well.
All IS well! Because my life is full of some pretty amazing people and things.

Sometimes you have incredible people in your life that love you unconditionally.
Sometimes memories come flooding back and all it takes is a sandwich and a old friend to laugh about all the "remember when's" with.
Sometimes frosty runs and DI golfing can completely make your day.
Sometimes you are lucky enough to have the best job in the whole world.
Sometimes you get to see some of your very best friends get married.
Sometimes you get to meet people who you love simply because your little sister loves them.
And sometimes you get blessed with the greatest family in the world.
"HAPPY DAY, ALL IS WELL!"
Because at the end of the day PEOPLE ARE WHAT MATTER and I have some pretty great people in my life.
