So, the past few days have been a little rough. I had to work yesterday (Sunday), so while I got to go to church, I still had to spend time calling people. I work at a call center. 90% of the time I talk to people who don't want to talk to me, and they make sure I know it (I've been cussed at many times, yelled at, made fun of... the list goes on and on and on). This week hasn't been too bad, but yesterday everyone was pretty mean. I mean, yes, they had a good reason to (with it being Father's Day and all) but they didn't have to be so rude.
I've also been working hard at losing weight so I can get ready for my mission. So far, I've lost about 20 lbs, which is great! It really is! But today, when I met with my nutritionist on campus, I found out that I bounced back a little bit. It was discouraging. I had worked so hard to lose that weight, and then it came back like nothing happened! But, I also found out that I've lost an inch around my waist!
But, because of everything that has been going on, from mission papers to work and everything in between, I learned today that I can't take life too seriously, because then I stress out and that doesn't help anything at all!
I learned that though some simple doodles. I started the taco one last night during work, and the others I did today.
So don't be stressed!
Try not to worry too much! I know it's hard but try a little each day to find the good :)
Like, for instance, today I made my first omelette! I mean, it's super simple, but it had cheese and bell peppers and it was delicious, and I for one was very proud of myself! So try each day to find 3 good things that happened!
I'll start!
- I made a very good omelette on my first try!
- I got to work out and I worked so hard to make myself better! And even though I'll be sore, I will know that I'm sore because I worked hard and pushed myself.
- I got to meet with my FHE family. I love them all very much. It's so much fun to plan activities and have fun and grow as a group!
See, that wasn't so hard! I bet if you can do the same thing, you will see your life change in miraculous ways! So remember, don't take life too seriously. Yes, there are serious times. But really, what I've learned in my first 11 months of being an adult is that we are all just really big kids masquerading as adults. So let your inner kid out and play! :) Be grateful! Stop and smell the roses! Because there will come a day when you can't.
I don't wanna be morbid or anything, but it's true. Take the time now to live right, be a good person, but also have some good, healthy fun :)
Have a great day everyone!
Love your favorite adventurer,
