I will be grateful for this day...
+I found this poster tonight, and it perfectly fits my bi-polar mood. I'm pretty sure that I need to get this and hang it on my bedroom wall, to remind myself that even though I'm still in the middle of my own personal storm... I can still be grateful for each day.
I'm learning a lot about myself right now. I'm learning that I am a strong person, who can overcome obstacles that I never imagined I would be going through. But I'm also learning that I am human, I have feelings and emotions that explode on me when I ignore them and pretend like they don't exist. I'm learning that it's okay to have bad days and to feel bad about my situation, but to not let these bad days control my life. I need to let the clouds come, pour their rain down, and then let them go and move on.
I've known this for a while... but it's been reconfirmed to me that Heavenly Father has a bit of a sense of humor. I was given a new calling in my ward. I'm going to be the 4th Sunday Relief Society teacher. My first lesson is this week and it's on the talk give by Elder Uchtdorf called Continuing in Patience. Fitting... don't you think?

I wish I could be there to hear your lesson! You're going to be so awesome!!!

The idea of recognizing the rise of an event or emotion, experiencing or feeling it while it lasts and then letting it go is from the Buddhist theory of recognizing that life happens but not dwelling on it. I try all the time to do just that, but as you know, I'm still learning too. :D
I totally think you should get that poster.
Awesome. I had that calling in our BYUH ward. Loved it! Good luck~! You'll be such a great teacher!
