Gratitude

So, this week has been a week full of feelings. It all started with realizing how important it is for our family to do daily scripture study together. It is amazing to me how the spirit will reside in our home when we have study time together. And when we don't take that time, how Satan is right there ready to pounce. I've been so grateful for the Gospel, my Savior and his words this week. On Saturday I was blessed to be able to attend the Temple with friends and neighbors. The spirit bouyed me up. And to finish it off, going to church on Sunday and listening to beautiful lessons taught there. It gives me such a feeling of gratitude. I am so blessed and I feel like I need to share, but am not sure where to share or with whom. I need to search this out and find where or who I need to do this with.

I think it must be the time of year. It seems like at this time of year I start reflecting on what the year has held and how I've been given so much. I see the beautiful colors starting to change and I realize time has flown by. I'm not ready for another winter, but it will come anyway and I'll be glad when the spring buds begin to show again. I guess I shouldn't wish away time and I need to learn to enjoy the moments that make up my life. I've begun to realize how fast time goes and how much of it I've wasted wishing it away. I guess this will be one of my goals - to enjoy the tiny moments and memories. I have such gratitude in my heart that I can take the time and do this. It will make life that much sweeter of that I am certain.
