Somehow I forgot to publish this post from a few days ago...
Almost 4 miles mostly uphill. It was a good little run. We've been in Utah for the weekend, and in the last 5 days I did 4.5 sessions, attended a baby shower, went to Ikea, attended my newphews' birthday party, church, cheered for Brazil in the World Cup and need to go see about working on some Stock Photography projects.
I love my life, the life my God has given me, that I have chosen to lead. I'm so grateful for everything I have, I am, and for everyone around me. This weekend has been so great. I've been in a constant state of Zen. It's an undescribable feeling, it's like a small dose of adrenaline constantly flowing, nothing negative getting in. This is the first time I've been to Utah in the last year after the hardest two years of our lives that I can finally enjoy this beautiful place that was home to me for almost 15 years.
We worked very hard to get out of the mess we accidentally put ourselves in, and we did it. And now as we slowly put our financial life back together, I can see how strong we have gotten by sticking to our goal of perservering when it was hard, and seemed impossible. We got to the bottom, well it could have been worse,but for us it was the bottom, and we dug ourselves out of it. There's nothing better than the feeling of conquering the unknown and conquering ourselves and our fears.
Needless to say ,this morning as I was running uphill next to the Provo Temple, listening to my iPod, as the sun is shining in all its glory sending energy speckles my way, my heart was pounding and pumping with gratitude for this wonderful life I've been blessed with. For being healthy, and for the three most important people in my life, for my family and for the knowledge that God is there and He hears me every single day. Sometimes I wonder how people in this world live their lives without The Almighty being a central and essential part of their lives, or without believing in Him even.
He's there people! He is REAL. And He loves us. If you are reading this and you're doubting and you really want to know, Ask! Seriously ASK!!! Get on your knees, cry, scream, do whatever you feel you need to do. If anything, you will feel a lot better for doing it. As the days go by, keep noticing your feelings. They start to change, and you start to change.
