It's My Life

"Learn to love the life you have, while creating the life of your dreams."
 I don't know who originally said this, but it fits perfectly with the world we all live in, and the battles we all (I) face every day.

We all face different demons, some of us battle unemployment or underemployment, some battle disease and illness; some are fighting mental demons or PTSD, or right now we are all battling an ever changing world that is forcing change upon us.  I have often written about finding satisfaction with our here and now, while keeping hope for tomorrow in front of us and always adapting and changing to what tomorrow may look like.  I'm not going to lie for a second and say I'm good at this, or even that I understand it fully.  I do understand and and know that it's easier said than done, and facing each and every moment can be seemingly impossible, and too painful to endure.  But as soon as the moment passes, and yes it is but a moment, we can look back on the previous moment with confidence that we did endure.  Maybe not without scars or wounds, but we did make it through.  Take these moments of strife and use them as a foundation to face the next moment. 

This is the most important week of the year for all Christianity, the Atonement, crucifixion and resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ.  He has made it possible for each of us to make these changes and focus or refocus on new priorities.  We can celebrate the fact that no one faces these nightmares or adventures alone.
