This too Shall Pass

"This too Shall Pass" is a phrase that a bishop told me when I was younger and going through some hard times.  He said every storm has an end.  This has stuck with me through my whole life.  Recently I have had an experience which has really opened my eyes.  It has made me step back and really think.  Think about who I am, what I stand for, and what I want to become. Though I have gained confidence in myself, and realizing that I have a choice and I have a right to my choice.  I know this storm will pass through just like everything else does, but things still hurt.  I often ask why do we have so much pain in this world? Why must we make these choices? See horrible things? 

 

I was driving with my niece and singing taylor swift and I just broke out in tears!! She stopped and looked at me like a crazy and said "what the heck is the problem?"  I told her that I didn't want her to grow up.  Her reply was very simple, "well kylie we all have to grow up, it is how we get big and strong."  That answer was so right.  We all have to grow up and go through these hard times so we can be molded into something so beautiful in the end.  Though I still am trying to think of a way that I can keep all my little nieces and nephews in a bubble so this mean world won't ever hurt them.  Still workin on it.

 

I get emails from this website everyday and it is something that just brightens my day.  My sister recommended it to me and I love it! I got this one today and it just put a smile on my face.  I have learned that I take on way to much and give to others so much that I don't focus on myself.  I have really been working on taking time out for me and doing things that I love.  As much as I love change, I hate it too.  It is scary, breaking out of the norm.  But doing it for yourself is something that is so important. Just remember to be you :)

 

 

Just remember if you are going through a hard time, you are never alone.  I can not believe how much support and love I have felt from friends and family.  Thanks for the love and always having my back.
