The last few days I have been in such a rut. I mean a moody, sad, depressed, don't wanna do anything kind of a rut. Yeah, super lame because I couldn't for the life of me figure why I was feeling this way. I mean I have so much in my life that makes me happy. I could go on and on about my loving family, my AMAZING fiance', my membership in this church, blessings I have been give etc....etc. Like I said I just wasn't happy. Dan has been so wonderful at listening to me these past few days, and do all he could to cheer me up. I know I say it all the time, but I am the luckiest girl ever. Even if it was just a simple and meaningful "I love you" he said it would bring a smile to my face. But still I wasn't myself and I figure it was just me that needed to find a way to fix this, I have been praying for someway to shake this feeling. Today at church the talks were on "finding happiness" ummm....Yeah HELLO! (this church is true haha) Everything that was shared today was just for me, and really open my heart to see what was missing in my life. I can honestly say, I love this church. I am so grateful for the power of Prayer, and for the strong testimonies of those around me that have helped me see what was missing in my life.
I have some questions for you and me too:
What makes you Happy?
How do you find Happiness?
What does Happiness mean to you?
for the first question maybe try making a list or as I call them "Happy Lists" and for the last two, ponder them this week as I will be doing and share with someone or just with yourself.
(click on these below to see my passes happy lists)
I just took a look at all my old Happy Lists and I loved it. Some of the things have been on each list, some are new and some are just for fun. I seriously encourage you all to do this once a Month, Once a week, or whenever you want! It truly does help you sit and think about all you have. :)
*September's Happy List will be coming on September 1st! :)*
&& here is a picture that makes my heart Happy.
Our very first picture ever.
May 22, 2010
(thank you to my cousin Annie for capturing this moment)
two days after that picture was taken, on May 24, 2010 we became an official couple after about three months of "talking". Then about two and half months after on August 9, 2010 we got engaged! and on March 12, 2011 we will be Married! && there you have our time line (because I don't think I have ever shared that with you)
