So I know I don't post much on this blog of mine but today I feel like I need to express myself. I am watching The Biggest Loser this evening and it really is inspirational. I realize it's a reality show but I think it's a reality show that is actually worth while and teaching a good principle of being healthy and fit. Why The Biggest Loser is making me feel grateful is a mystery to me, but it is.
I have so many things in my life to be grateful for, first of all, my husband. My husband is the greatest. I know you think your husband is the greatest but mine is the greatest for me! Brady is such a wonderful person and I love him so much! I even told my mom tonight while I was talking to her on the phone that the only useful thing that came out of my humanities class my freshman year was meeting Brady. :) And really, it's true. That class was dumb, but I met my husband, the love of my life. Brady does so much for me and is such a great support and rock for the hard times in my life. I can't imagine facing life's hardships with anyone else. He is amazing plain and simple.
I am also grateful for my wonderful family. My parents and siblings are the best! I am so glad that we are close and that I talk to them often. I can't imagine not being close. I love them and I love their kids! And my parents! They are amazing. When the ladies at work talk about "kids these days" and them not wanting to spend time with their parents I can proudly say that I enjoyed spending time with my parents while I lived at home. The relationship I have with my parents is like nothing else. It's priceless and I love them so much.
I am thankful for friends. I have come in contact with so many people in my short 23 years of life so far. I know that I am not good and keeping in touch with old friends but I still love them all the same. They have all touched my life in a very special way. To my Disney friends, you are the most unique and diverse group of people that I have ever met and I can't imagine my life without you. Disney was one of the best experiences of my life and I learned so much about myself while being in that magical place. High school friends, and college friends have all played a role in some way in my life. I don't keep in close contact with them all but I am still grateful to have them in my life.
I hate to single anyone out but, Michael and Betsy Lybbert- you two.... I love you so much. These two people were my second family living in Provo and they have done so much for me! Thank you for being awesome! And thank you for filling in when I was missing my family! You two are the best!
And finally I am so grateful for the gospel of Jesus Christ in my life. This is one thing that I could not live without. The gospel is my life. I am a follower of Christ and I hope that I live my life everyday in a way that reflects that. I am grateful for the gift of the atonement and the role it plays. I can't imagine going through life without the light and love of Christ in my life. Words cannot express how thankful I am everyday for the knowledge and comfort that the gospel brings. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and I am proud and grateful to say it.
I am filled with love and joy and I am overflowing with the Spirit of the Lord.
Have a wonderful day/night whatever time it is that you are reading this.
much love!
