What I've learned...

I've learned many things this year. I've learned that it's ok to take time for a breather and just go be by myself to, gather my thoughts and calm down. That really helps me out because I get stressed very easily with everything that goes on in my life. It gives me the chance ot calm down and maybe talk to my Heavenly Father about what I'm going through. 


I learned that everyone is important in their own special way. And we all need to respect and love people the way they are. Now I'm not saying that we should tell them, "Oh, you're fine to be doing this. It's just who you are." I know that's kind of confusing so let me explain. We need to love people the way they are while being there for them to help them become even better. Also letting yourself be ther one to get better. There's always room for improvment and I'm sure everyone will agree.


I were placed on this earth to get a body and grow to make our my own choices and learn and gain a testimony of my Heavenly Father. Sometimes, he will let me fall, but he will help me get back up and get stronger. He wants me to taste disappointment and failure so that I can get stronger. I once heard someone say that when they fast, they get hungry. To 
them, that is a reminder that they can't do it without the Savior. And just this last fast Sunday, I tryed remembering that and really did 
help. It let me have a good experience, with fasting. He also wants me to taste sadness and pain so that I could have Joy and Happiness as well. along with Fear and Faith, Pride and Charity, the list goes on. That's why man had to fall. Think about it, Heavenly Father wants me to one day be just like him. Well, how does that happen without feeling what he feels? 

I'm so greatful for what I've learned from this year. It's helped me be more calm and patient with the difficult situations in my life. This has really been a great year!
