Its been such a good week.
A very steady, non overwhelming week.
Loved it!
.
.
One year today, exactly is when I left Texas.
I cannot believe its been a year....
I am not angry or sad or upset------I feel very FREE today.
I look at the past year, and I have covered ALOT of road.
I have come so amazingly far.....
and I have 5 people to thank for that!
First, my savior!
He lead me to the most perfect SPOT.....because I never stopped listening.
My Family!
Mike!
My net of FRIENDS!
And ME!
Because in the end, it ultimately is up to me. I have to make the choices and I have to do the work!
.
.
I went to sleep last night, with the temple in mind.
Umm...HELLO!
Could their be a better way to celebrate today then at the Temple?
.
.
It was a place I strived to be at.
Made It my goal , months ago and I feel like it was a perfect place for HF and I to reminisce....lol
Seriously tho------
I went alone today, for obvious reasons. :)
.
.
I drove to Bountiful, and right when I got off the freeway and headed towards the mountains seeing that white glowing building, tears started to FLOW!
I cried the whole way to the parking lot.
Then said a little prayer and sat in my car with a FULL and excited heart and sobbed.
Tears of PURE joy!
No sadness......
.
I look back on that scary SCARY day....
I still can't believe I was brave enough.
I couldn't have done it alone, it was a magical and powerful day.
Miracles........a day of miracles.
.
.
I KNEW I had the power to change.
Change ME and change my situation.
.
.
Its almost like HF was waiting for me to stand up and be brave.
He knew I had it in me......he knew all i needed to do was ask......
And BOOM, he was there!
He moved mountains for me.
and in return, he has taught ME how to move mountains.

I adore where I am today.
Its still hard, and my life is NOT perfect.....not even close.
But I have learned so much about happiness....
When you DO good, happiness grows.
When you are RIGHT with yourself and with god, Happiness is bound to follow....
