Being Happy in the here and now!

You sometimes hear people say some of the following:

1. Oh I just wish I could be married already
2. I just want to be done with school.
3. I hate my job.

I am not meaning to bring any one down but something that I have learned in last couple of years for myself is that I need to better myself for my future and just be happy with were I am in the life.

Like with the wishing I was married. Not going to say that I don't want to get married. But I figure that Heavenly Father has a plan and some lessons that I need to learn before I get married. I need to learn and grow first. So  I have come to realize that I truly am happy with where my  life is going and the experiences that I have had that help  to make me a better person.

I just want to be done with school- I really struggle with school so I am one of those who wishes school could be over. I was going to start school again last month but it didn't work out. I just need to figure out what I am going to do and what my different options are for schooling or a trade school.

I hate my job- I am not saying that I hate my job by any means. I actually really enjoy it. I know some people may hate there jobs now but need to realize that it can be leading to an end point. If you are working while in school then it is helping to pay for your schooling so then you can graduate in something that you like.

I love the talk be President Monson "Finding Joy in the Journey". Life really is a journey with many ups and downs. I really like this quote from that talk, " Let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey, and share our love with friends and family." I feel as if we need to enjoy the moments that we are living in and not wish for something different. We each have a purpose to fulfill and it will be fulfilled in the Lord's time.

So much has happened!

So since the last time I posted on here so much has happened. One of the major things that has happened is I have moved home. I never really thought that I would end up living at home again. But due to unforseen circumstance at my apartment with a roommate I have moved home. But I believe it will be a good thing.

One of the benefits of living at home is I can save up more money. I am wanting to save up  so that i can pay my car of this year instead of next year. Then I can get rid of that expense. Also over the Christmas break while all my roommates were gone I came to realize that I really like living on my own. The house stays cleaner and I don't have to worry about upsetting anyone. I am also going to save up so that I can get a place of my own.

I am so grateful to my parents who are so willing to let me come back for a time to save up so that I can live out on my own.
