My life is good

I was driving to work today and thinking about things that have been happening in my life lately. In everything I thought about, all I could think was I love my life, my life is good.

Sure, there are things that have been hard. The beauty of it though, is that I have grown, and am still growing, as a result of the experiences. I would not trade one thing that has happened in the last week for all the lujo in the world.

I called my dad last night and tried to tell him I was interviewing for a job in Colorado. It was hard, because he was trying to tell me about how he had been home alone all weekend. The funny thing is, is that he likes it when no one is around because then he can do what he wants to do. I am not sure it quite sunk in how far away I would be going if I got it. He normally wigs out when I tell him I am thinking about going far away. Maybe it is because I would be in Colorado, which is not as far a Tennessee.

Going in to tomorrow, I feel at peace. Maybe it will sink in later on, like when I am there. It is a new step for me and maybe a new chapter of my life. The great thing is that like all chapters in a good book, you can go back to previous chapters in your life where there are people who have made a difference in your life. While the people may not always be there like they were before, you have the memories to give you strength during hard times.

I think about this a lot because I have never really had a real steady group of friends. I would not trade one of them or the fun times we had. They all taught me something valuable and helped me a certain points of my life. Sometimes the Lord gives you a variety of people to help you through different points of your life. It is amazing how truely midful Heavenly Father is of his children.

Recently, the Lord has brought many special people in to my life. Elle has been a huge strength to me in my life. Christy has helped me realize some things I had dormant in my life. Dave helped me to realize some of the post-missionary feelings I had lost. Blair has shown to me what loyalty is and patience when you truely care for someone.

The most recent person in my life is Trevor. I have only known him a short while, but I can sense how special he is. I remember the first day I met him. He had this twinkle in his eye and he stood apart from others. In reality, I never thought I would see him again. Then he found me.
