Oh the life I lead....

I've come to the realization that if you have to do something - an awful, horrible job - forcing yourself to be happy about it will inevitably make it a more pleasant work! Its amazing isn't it?

I remember once, during school, I hadn't had the BEST night of my life, i was very stressed out about school, and it was snowy and cold outside, SO needless to say I was kind of unhappy. Well, the next morning I woke up and I knew that the day was going to be horrible....but instead, I tried to do everything that i could think of to make it a better day. I started with a prayer, scriptures, and writing in my journal. When I was writing in my journal I wrote in huge letters, " I WILL HAVE A GOOD DAY. TODAY WILL BE A GREAT DAY."

And you know what happened? It pretty much was. Some days are good, and you might remember a little random event that made it special....but everything about this day was great! The sun wasn't shining, it was a freezing cold Idaho day, I had homework coming out of my ears, BUT there was a beautiful sunset - i felt like that was just for me. Heavenly Father heard my prayers and knew it would help me. Isn't that a good story? Rather "Ensign" worthy if i do say so.

On a different note....i work in a jewelry store. Thats all i do all day! Sell people diamonds as big as their face that is WAY too expensive, their husbands are going to kill them when they know they just put that on the Visa...., and its exactly what they DO not need! Its crazy....so i have decided, to the eternal happiness of my FUTURE husband...i don't like diamonds. I don't really like jewelry at all, to be honest. I feel this is a good move on the part of my sub conscious, as it will bless me in the future to be free of debt even addiction to these expensive rocks. So, future husband, extra points for me...!
