Next Chapter.

"When people walk away from you, let them go. Your destiny is never tied to anyone who leaves you, and it doesn't mean they are bad people, it just means that their part in your story is over."


And God wants to give me "something better."
The epitome of this blog.

Scriptures.

Trials make you stronger.

I've been getting my fair share of trials continually this year but also most recently. Over time, I have trained myself find a lesson and take more wisdom out of each experience. I have grown so much. I always find myself getting hurt and knocked down over and over again. I end up doubting myself. But I get back up. The friends and family I have around me lift me and encourage me. I have been blessed enough to have those people in my life. And the gospel. It is filled with so much truth and I know I can always rely on its true principles to assure me of God's love for me and for His individual care and concern for my trials, pains, and heartbreaks. I have also been blessed with a forgiving heart that can't hold grudges. I don't like it when people are mad at me. I always want to be thought of as someone people can rely on, trust, and know as a good person and friend.

So as of recently, I have learned that...
I am stronger than I ever thought I could be.
I am loved by caring roommates, friends, and family.
I need to be patient with the things Heavenly Father has in store for me. They will come in his own time.
I know of my Heavenly Father's individual love for me.
I am so grateful to be from San Diego and to call that sunny city home.
The holiday season brings so much happiness to my life and Christmas music makes everything better.
People deserve second chances.
God is continually preparing me for my ultimate "something better" and that he is going to give me the best of the best.
I have potential to do great things.

In the beginning of this semester, I kept saying to myself that this semester was going to be for me. I was going to be able to grow on my own and really find some things about myself that I never knew. And I've done that. This semester is quickly coming to an end and I am growing. I can see it. I was planning to stay single this semester. And even though that relationship was so short, I learned so much. It meant so much. I felt something. So even though I didn't have this semester completely for me, it was another learning experience. It was another chapter in my story. I was faced with trials and heartbreak but God is going to give me something better. He is always striving to do that for me everyday.

It has been a long time...again.

I have been pretty busy since I've been back up at school. I wish I could blog more but for now, I think I will post every so often about different things I learn as I go on through yet another year of college life.

This week, I learned that I really do have time for everything that needs to be done. I just have to manage time better. I learned that when I reward myself with food when I complete homework assignments, I get things done! I learned that I kind of enjoy indexing! I learned that I shouldn't be afraid to cheer during sporting events. I learned that there are a lot of people in my life that really care about me. I learned that I am seriously so blessed.
