All Is Well

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.

UPDATE

UPDATE: saying yes is hard, sometimes (a lot of times) I choose sleep over clean hair, and these people make my heart oh so happy! As I continue to give fully to my job and to the people in my life, I continue to learn more and more that these humans give me more than I could ever give them.  And that is completely worth it.

I Sort Of Hate Making Decisions About Life.

Sometimes I have to make decisions about my life. And those decisions are hard and they scare me and I don't know what to do. Sometimes I think I have an answer and then a few days later I am doubting and second guessing everything that I think I  have figured out. It's so not cool. And above all I can't handle that fact that I don't know what I am supposed to do! How do I figure this out? How do I know if I am making the right decision? How? How do I know what it is that I am supposed to do? My life is a tad jumbled and messy right now.

The Top TEN!

Okay so it's actually two different top ten lists but that's fine. Here we go. The top TEN…. Things I have learned this semester… 10. Even when school is hard it can be enjoyable. 9. Drives up the canyon can do a lot of good. 8. Sometimes I struggle with people. 7. People are more understanding if you just go talk to them about what is going on. 6. My brain is capable of more than I ever will understand. 5. Some days you just need to buy a cheesecake. And that's okay. 4. Taking chances=worth the risk. 3. Even though trials may be hard, in the end you will learn something. Keep going. 2. People can be major blessings in your life. 1. I will do absolutely anything for the ones that I love. Even if they don’t realize it. Things I did this semester…..(in no particular order) 10. Went snowboarding TWICE (this probably doesn't seem like a big deal but it actually is). 9. Sparklers up the canyon. 8. Tri-wizard tournament (scrapped my shoulder up pretty bad...
