Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to every single Father out there.
To all those who are about to be fathers,
To those who are uncles
To those who are a bother or friend.

Happy Father's day to my Dad.
Thank you for the years of sacrifice that you have given for our family.
Thank you for providing for us.
Thank you for teaching us and being an example to us.
Thank you for being strong in the Gospel.
I am so grateful to have you in my life.
I am so grateful that you are my Dad.
Thank you for being you.

Love you Dad.

Grateful...

I am grateful to have the gospel in my life.
I am a stronger and better person with the spirit of the Lord in my life daily.
Life problems that three years ago would have been so hard for me,
Now seem like a tiny little speed bump that I hardly notice.

The gospel makes me want to always be improving myself,
It gives me the confidence to do what scare me.
It give me the power to heal from past events.
It always me to live a fuller life.

I am a happier person with the gospel in my life.
All I had to do is let Him in to my life.
To trust Him and to share my life with Him.
He cares for me, and wants the best for me.

Break in the silence...

This week has been crazy busy!
This was my first week back at work from having two weeks off!
And let's just say it wasn't very productive!
It was very hard trying to get out of 'holiday mode' this week at work,
Let's just hope this week I have more success!

Not only has my productivity at work been poor this week,
But it has also been lame this past week on my blog
For this I am sorry,
Try to be better this week!

Oh I have so much to feel you all in on!
But not right now as it is late, and I have an early start!

But I would like to leave you with a awesome video!
Today at church in relief society Chelsea shared with us a amazing video,
I wanted to share it with you with a hope that it touches you as much as it did me.


I am so grateful for the people in my life, 
No matter how small of a role they may think that they play in my life,
They should all know that if they didn't play that small or large part in my life,
And have the effect on me, and the examples that they are to me,
I would not be the person I am today.
And I love each and every one of them,
For every single thing they do for me.

Hope everyone had a great weekend,
And have the best start possible to your new week!

HOORAY!!!

Picture credit
Today, 2 years ago,
I made a decision,
I looked at my life,
& decided that I needed to change the path that I was on.
That I was not happy,
& I deserved a better life then I was living.

Today, 2 years ago,
I turned my life upside down,
& inside out.
I reviewed every area of my life,
& made choices that will effect my life forever,
For the better.

Today, 2 years ago,
I started one of the hardest & longest trials of my life.
I had no idea what was install for me,
But I knew that the end goal will be worth it,
No one ever going to be easy.
I will experience my very lowest day,
& I will experience my happiest day possible.

Today, two years ago,
I started to break bad habits,
I quit smoking & drinking.
Which was the blocker of a lot of emotion stuff.
Smoking and drinking made me numb to what was going on with me and my life.

Today, two years ago,
I returned to the faith that my parents raised me in.
I returned to church,
I continually work on my testimony on the gospel.


I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (mormon)
I am non-smoker
I am non-drinker
I am improving my fitness
I am getting fit and losing weight
I am improving my health
I am improving the relationships with my family members
I am working on opening up to my friends more
I am working on becoming a better person.
I am developing my career
I am working on my anxiety disorder

I am the happiest I have ever been!!

The past 5 years have been the hardest of my life, 
The past 2 year have been a different type of harder then the 3 before it.
But all the trials I have been through have taught me so much
I never regret a single thing in my life
Because they have made me who I am,
And where I am today
And for that I am grateful for!

There are a handful of people that with
their support, encouragement, advise,
& a shoulder to lean on.
They know who they are,
And become of them, they have helped my get where I am today,
For that I will be eternally grateful for you!

Gratitude...

I am grateful for my cute niece, and that every time I touch my phone, I can't help but smile at the photo of her gorgeous smiling face.

I am grateful for the friendships that I have with my sisters, that we talk often, and that they are there for me when ever I need to talk.

I am grateful for my parent, they are my best friends, they love me and support me with what ever I choose to do in my life, and are there to catch me when I fall.

I am grateful for my awesome flat mate, I would be lost with out her! Lisa aka Squirrel!

I am grateful for the job that I have, majorly grateful for the supportive manager that I have and that they look after me.

I am grateful for my health, sure it's not the best at the moment, could be a lot better but at the same time it would be a lot worse.

I am grateful for the people that have influenced me in my life, they are have meant so much to be, they have been such examples to me. Thanks to their foot prints on my life, I am a better person for knowing them.

I am grateful for having my awesome book collection (to which is still growing), which always me to escape the stresses of everyday life into another world.

I am grateful for living in a country of peace and freedom. To be able to feel safe walking down the street.

I am grateful for the strength that the gospel gives to me, the peace that it brings to my life, the hope for the future.

I am thankful for how awesome mother nature is, for the amazing weather we had this past weekend, for the amazing blue skies and bright sparkling night stars, for the difference in the seasons which makes each of them gorgeous in their own way.

Life is short, so stop, slow down, breathe, relax, appreciate the thing in you life, don't take them for granted, one day it could be all gone, and then it's too late.
Live life and enjoy every moment!
