A voice for you

Lately there hasn't been a whole lot about my life that has made absolute sense. But the things that do make sense right now I am sure will never change. I know absolutely that I am a beautiful daughter of God made not only purposefully, but made on purpose, even the parts of me that I consider to be ugly. But somethings aren't as ugly or as bad as they first seem, you just have to wait to see the unexpected and sometimes unexplainable beauty.
I know that this life is amazing and beautiful, but it seems to me that only a belief in a being higher than yourself whether it's God, or Buddha, or whatever thing it is people choose to believe in gives you enough insight and hope and depth to see past all the scars and marred moments of life to see beauty,
I know that God loves his children enough to speak to them, not only in the past, but also now he will always find a way to speak to his children, because he loves them.
I also know that the saying "if its not okay than it's not over" is accurate, life isn't always clean cut and organized. Things don't always make sense, but I know that when you continue to try the best you can and when you have given until you can't. Slowly over the hard times you become someone that's not possible without the hard times. As long as you keep trying as far as I have witnessed life does get better. It does not get easier, but it does get better. And as you have hope for the future and look to the horizon for a better tomorrow, life gets more beautiful. You notice the small details that makes life the amazing experience that it has the potential to be.
I know there are moments when you feel overwhelmed lost and sometimes like you have no idea where you belong. And I know there are times when people tell you to be strong and keep smiling, but honestly sometimes you need a moment to mourn, mourn that you've lost sometimes, and that life doesn't always make sense. I find that most of the times I find myself mourning it over a feeling of being lost, or of having lost something. No matter what it is, it is okay to mourn, it's okay to not always be happy, it's part of this human experience.
But never get so lost in mourning that you forget what once made you smile and rejoice. Because no matter what you've lost it should never be so much that it takes away your ability to be happy in the future, no matter how crappy life is there will be something worth rejoicing over in your future, if you don't get so lost in the ruts of hard times. Keep your eyes open for the moments that are meant to be rejoiced over. They are sometimes few and far between, but they are there, don't miss them.
I am starting this blog specifically for my children, so that there is a voice for good, for them. But also I'm starting anyone out there that finds themselves lost wondering where to look for a positive influence. There needs to be a voice for good, and I am going to try me hardest to share what I do have.

The Shame Game

     Exactly 450 days ago I got married, the day that everyone says is the happiest day of your life. I was happy, incredibly happy. But happiness is a strange and interesting emotion, it's not like instant gratification or even like the anticipation of a surprise, it's soft and quiet. Happiness comes through the application of true principles in life sometimes the result is so subtle that you will completely miss the happiness if you don't know that it is real and existing right in front of you. Happiness is like a habit and if you stop nourishing it, it will fade and completely disappear, most of the time we don't notice the absence of light and happiness until it is so drastic that it would take a great change of action to restore it.     On January 24th my husband moved out after almost 13 months of marriage. I had always known marriage would be hard and that it took effort and change to make it work, I saw my older siblings in their marriages and I knew when I de

Starting somewhere

    I miss writing. I miss the way it sooths my soul, the way it empowers me to look at the details of my life in a positive light. There has been so much going on in my life lately that writing basically got buried in a corner forgotten.      Some of it might be due to the fact that havent felt very positively about my life lately. But I miss the feeling of being in-love with life, I miss feeling alive. Somewhere inside of myself I know that if I want to feel those things again I need to find the courage to pull out the things I love and dust them off. At first it might not be very pretty, like a painter that is out of practice there are bound to be some duds before there are masterpieces.     Here I am making it full circle with a goal that is the very reason I started this blog, I want to start writing everyday. Writing things that I hope can help and inspire others and maybe in the writings of my soul I will be able to refind myself.     Its interesting where life takes you and

Complacency

2 Nephi 28:21 " And others will he pacify, and lull them away into carnal security, that they will say: All is well in Zion; yeah Zion prospereth, all is well- and thus the Devil cheateth their souls, and leadeth them away carefully down to Hell"  Complacency, it's a curse of this generation of which we live. Everyone seeks for comfort, but don't get comforting lifestyles confused with comfortable lifestyles.. A comforting life style can bring you peace, joy and growth, but is not void of hard times, trial and uncomfortable stretching in our soul. But the growth and trials can bring a lot of peace, and reassurance and in the end it's comforting. A comfortable life style is limited to what is within the lines of our comfort zone and it limits us. Our body will be comfortable and reassured that a life of ease is stable and unwavering. But the soul will long for the freedom of growth. Don't barter away your soul for the complacency of this mortal life.
