My Two Cents About Life

Moving away from home and starting a life of my own and making all new friends is a very good learning experience, but it sure can be complicated. I realize now that in high school I had really good friends and I took it for granted. Since I have been at college I have been betrayed and many more things but through it all I have managed to make a few really good friends that I hope will stay good friends for a very long time. I imagined college to be a lot different than it really is. There is a good and bad side to that. I never thought I would have to deal with my friends betraying me, and having roommates is a whole other story in itself. They say life is a highway but in a lot of ways it is more like a rollercoaster. You start out slow and then it all comes at you so fast and you have no time to react, but after all is said and done you will eventually make it back to where you started. I don't want to get all preachy but our goal is to make it back to our Heavenly Father. I heard a saying once that was, "Life is not about the destination, it's about the journey getting there". That is so true. Yes our ultimate goal is to make it back to our Heavenly Father but life is all about the decisions, trials, happiness, etc… that we experience along the way. I know that eventually everything will work out but I feel that in my life right now I am at a standstill. I know that if I put my faith in the Lord everything will fall into place but it is still hard now not knowing what the future holds. The day that I get to return to my Heavenly Parents will be a glorious day. Until that day all I can do is have faith and trust in the Lord, because I believe that He knows what is best for me and will lead me down the path that is best suited for me to experience the things I need to on Earth. There will always be trials and hardships but in return there will be happiness and joy. I will end by saying once again, "Life is not about the destination, it's about the journey getting there".
