Day Two & Three

Day Two was a lot better! I am still struggling to find a time to exercise, but I am a work in progress.

Day Three: I love how a feel when I eat right! I just wish I was better at remembering that! I also was reading in the Doctrine and Covenants 31, and one verse says:
"Be patient in afflictions..."

This has been something I have been fighting. I struggle with being patient in my own trial. I struggle with not reaching the end fast enough, I see it and I want it. And with anything in life, most times, it is about the process and not the result. We learn through digging deep and trudging through. Because when we reach the prize, we find a sweet joyous reward, that has caused our very beings to shift, change, and smooth out. It is the process that makes us beautiful, creates our character, and allows us to soar to new heights.

So my goal is focus on one day at a time, keeping my eyes and heart open to learning. And when I reach my goal, I will be able to look back and see my weakness disappearing into a strength. I will see the lows and highs of my journey and be able to realize that each one brought new hope, stronger faith, and new understanding.
