I was reading my mother's journal not too long ago and as I was reading it I was missing her greatly but also was so grateful that she had a journal and that she wrote in it often and that she left those written words for me to read and remember. Every time I pick up her journal and read, I again realize how important it is to keep a journal. For a long time I kept a typed journal and would keep the printed pages in a loose leaf. Jamie got me started blogging and I have loved being able to blog on the computer at my convenience and when I want to, when I have the time, and what content I want. It is my journal and my thoughts which gives me the right to say and write what I want. I've tried my best to keep my journal on a positive side and write about what feels good to me. My journal is not to compare how much I wrote about different members of my family. I write on the people who surround my life on a daily basis and keep me a part of their lives and that of their family and make it a habit to include me in their activities. I can only write on what I have experienced and what has added to my life in a positive and loving way. So what I post, I hope it "publishes peace, (and) good tidings of good . . . . Mosiah 15:14
My Sunday Thoughts for today are:
THINGS TO REMEMBER
- You don't have to be perfect
- Having a bad day is okay
- Small steps are also progress
- Asking for help is strength
- People love and appreciate you for who you are - not for what they want or expect you to be
Have a wonderful week!
