Realization #1: Who seems to have time for anything anymore? Blogging for example... Lately, I have been going through and organizing my life. This past week has been a product of check lists, cookies, and classical music. All of which, keep me sane and soft. (Soft spoken that is.)
Realization #2: My life seems to be breaking down into three very visible categories. Maybe patterns is a better word.
First, we have the every day. Every day, I wake up and have the same routine. (Love this, by the way.)
Second, we have the basics. I work, go to school, study, and spend time with my roommates. All of which are subject to change their timing around, but are still happening consistantly happening.
Third, we have the goals, the things I want to happen soon, and the things I wish were happening. (All of which is conveniently located inside of my head, which means that I take this with me everywhere I go.)
Moral of my random thought... I am a creature of habit. I hope I am making good ones.
Realization #3: Today is a cold day. As I sit here at my computer I keep glancing at the window wondering if the condensation on the inside of the glass will be dry soon. The snow is coming. I can feel it. The sky is grey and secretive. The sky and I are alike in this way today. A feeling of solemnity has come over me. A fullness fills me up with nowhere to release. And like the sky, soon I too will pour downward.
Realization #4: "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." This scripture has been going though my mind all morning. Each person has their own labours. Things may seem heavy to one that would not be heavy to another. We are each at different points in our progression. Let us be slow to judge and quick to love for charity is the pure love of Christ.
Last night, I had the most wonderful of experiences. Two of my sisters and I were able to visit with another sister from our ward. What a wonderful and uplifting experience this turned out to be for all four of us. We were lifted, we were healed, and we were strengthened through each others sweet testimonies. Unity comes from reaching out to those around us. We are all going through some sort of refining fire which means we are all struggling through something that is making us stronger. How wonderful it is when we can find someone who can relate to us and help us through our trials!
Realization #5: I am capable of so much more than I give myself credit for.
