Happy Sunday Afternoon.
This is probably my favorite mormon message of all time.
I love it so much. Probably because I get so caught up in life so easily. There are always a million things I could do, should do, want to do, ect. Finding a balance can be so hard. And learning what matters most can also prove difficult. I feel like these college years of my life are a particularly selfish time. I am in college, in my own classes, figuring out what I want to major in. I love my friends but in the end what I do is a lot about me. It has been a transition point where I am taking charge of my own life. It is a starting point of a new direction, figuring out what I want for the rest of my life. I feel selfish at college sometimes, because in the end I have to figure out what is best for me. With that background this mormon message has taught me a lot about not getting caught up in myself. Each time I watch it I realize that this time in my life is not what I had previously considered it to be. I did not make this journey to this point in my life alone. Countless people have helped me to reach where I am today. Countless people help me everyday to continue to pursue a path that I want make this journey on. What I do is a result of their love, because they have learned what matters most. They have learned service, they have learned love, and they have been able to show that to me.
Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved.
I believe that. I love that idea. And this day and everyday I am trying to learn to incorporate that lesson into my life.
