Appreciating The World Around You

-
      Since General Conference I decided to take the challenge of fasting from social media for ten days, and so far it really opened my eyes to so many things. I cherish time with my family more and I appreciate the world around me. It also helped me stay positive and live in the moment. I believe that's one thing we forget to do sometimes.
 "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."
 -Ferris Bueller's Day Off
  There are so many things to appreciate in life. Cherish time with your family, go to the park and look around. Life is meant to be experienced; we can't experience life through looking down at a phone screen. I'm not saying social media is bad, but it's good to take a break and live in the moment.

I feel so happy during this break I'm taking. I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything anymore. Be happy and live life to the fullest.

Being Strong in a Chaotic World

We are often told by the world that we are weak. No matter what challenges you face, remember that you possess the strength to overcome them. You are enough, just as you are. Believe in yourself and the possibilities that await you. You have the power to create a life that you love and to be your own source of strength and joy. It’s okay to be scared and feel negative emotions, it means you are human. The world hasn’t gone soft, but it’s making expressing emotions more vital to physical and mental health. There is nothing weak about being vulnerable. I strongly disagree with the notion that showing emotions and vulnerability is a sign of weakness. Johnny Depp said this amazing quote about vulnerability, “People cry not because they’re weak, it’s because they’ve been strong for too long.”

Patience

-
I have lived in Arizona for about four months now and it has been a big change, but I know it was for my own good. It was a plan B after getting out of a toxic relationship. I don’t know what the next few months will bring, but I’m doing my best to be optimistic and patient. I have always been a believer that things happen for a reason and they do. Having patience is the best way to go. It’s not easy, but it’s worth it.

My 2023

-
My biggest lesson this year has been that life does not always go as planned. My plan for this year was to settle down and get married, but after realizing the toxic nature of the relationship, I left and started a new life in Arizona. As a result of my fear of the unknown, I found it difficult to take this step.  But with the support of close friends and my determination to create a better future for myself, I made the courageous decision to leave it all behind and start over. I discovered new things about myself and how capable I am to be successful in life. I was also inspired creatively and I discovered new hobbies.  I made new friends and made new connections. I can’t wait to see what 2024 will have in store. I will go into this new year with an open mind and heart.
