Good Happens

I am grateful for so many things- including life itself. I am especially grateful for my friends and family, my education, and my experiences. I know that I have certain experiences because I need to relate to others and help them through their hard times and other experiences. I feel that God has blessed each of us with various experiences to help our fellow man.

Recently I came across a few videos that have stood out to me, and that I would like to share.
Below are the links. Check them out:

This video shows us how we view ourselves versus how others view us. It is amazing how degrading we are to ourselves... I know we are all children of God and that we are all beautiful.

This video reminds us that we are not alone... Others are suffering as well... But that we must endure to the end, we must exercise even a twig, or particle of faith and use to the extent we can... And we can rise above our trials. We are NEVER alone.

And lastly a music video:

Good happens. Theme of this blog. You just have to wait and see. Life will be tragic, heart breaking, frustrating, and sometimes may seem impossible- but I promise you, good happens! Pain won't last forever, I know that for a fact.

I believe that we are all sons and daughters of a loving God, whom I like to refer to as my Heavenly Father. I know that life throws us more than we feel we can handle sometimes, BUT if we believe even with the smallest particle of faith, we will find a great hope and know that although we feel alone, we are NEVER alone.

Sudafed

I have had a cold recently. And it's not a normal cold. It's just a stuffy/runny nose. It's driving me CRAZY. Why is it stuffy and runny?!!!! How does that even make sense?! Anyways, Sudafed has made it tolerable. So today I am grateful for Sudafed :)

My blog.

This is my 100th post on here. And I am so grateful that I've had this blog to write all the good things in life. When I am having a hard time, I can reflect on all the good moments that are throughout this blog, and all the things and people I've been grateful for throughout the years and it reminds me how very lucky I am.

What I'm Grateful For #16

Today I am especially grateful for medicine. Without it, I'm a MESS. I don't sleep, I'm moody, and I'm depressed. So because of medicine, I can function like a normal human being :)
