Busy Bees

Have you ever wondered why everyone is always so busy? It is common now-a-days for people to say "I'm too busy" or "maybe later, I have a lot of stuff to do"... maybe we need to slow down. Today I have felt extremely busy. From school at 7am this morning, right into work,studying my brain out, whisked away after dinner, cram relaxing in a ten minute bath, and in what felt like a blink of an eye - i am now in bed. Life is one huge cycle... I find myself in a daily routine sometimes able to be timed exactly to the minute. I get lost in my overscheduled world and do not realize how fast things are going until I have reminders. I saw a very kind, very old man at work today. He was all bundled up, trying to stay warm in this fridged utah weather and run errands at the same time. For some reason this kind man reminded me that life is fast moving and not long enough on this earth. I had a mini panic attack realizing that I can't "always be a little girl and have fun" (peter pan). I wanted to be care-free again, to go back and re-live fun moments from my memories... I was pretty scared. But then a calm feeling came over me and i thought to myself, "I still have a long way to go... maybe I need to appreciate the little things in life and not be on a constant schedule. Maybe i need to notice more, appreciate more, serve more, care more, and live more". So today i am thankful for that kind old man that reminded me how fast and crowded life can be.

Today

Today i am thankful for patience - It is something that i definately lack. I struggle with a lot of traits and characteristics in my life. I am thankful for those in my life who have incredible patience and have been examples to me as they have patience with yours truely. I am extremely stubborn and admit it. It is something that i have and will have to work on my whole life. I am thankful for those who are great examples to me.

Stress Free Me

Recently with school and wedding plans my life feels like it has consistant stress. I am human, and seem to explode when i try to contain this emotion within me. So i have made it a goal starting today that i will list one thing EVERY DAY that i am thankful for on this blog. Today I am thankful for my mom. She has been super women with wedding plans,and other stresses in her life such as visiting teaching, helping my brother with school and sports and has shown me the power of her organizational skills. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful mom! I am not always the best daughter and she is always a kind, loving, fun friend to me. I know from past experience that not having a relationship with my mom is a very sad and hard time. I am thankful that i can come home from school and work and talk to her. Thank you mom for taking charge with invitations, planning, showers, helping me register, emotional needs, and being there for me every step of the way. I love you!
