The New Year

I know that we have already gone through a week of the New Year, but I wanted to start the blog year off right. And in a cliche kind of way. Resolutions.

This year, I have decided that I am going to be happy. I need to be happier in my life. I am starting this endeavor by reading the Book of Mormon at least twice this year. I figured there is no better way to have joy than to dive into the gospel. I think the past year I have been too worried about where I was and where the world tells me I should be. There is no happiness in that because I realized that I am no where near those expectations. I know, however, that as I study the scriptures, I will learn and progress to where I feel I should be spiritually. I have only been doing this for a week and I already feel a difference. Well, that AND I've been to the doctor and have my thyroid medication again. That makes a huge difference too!

I'm really excited about this year. I feel good things are coming our way. We don't have anything extravagant happening, but I know that happiness can be found in simplicity.
