What a daaaay! Even though I've been quite stressed out this week, today was an amazing day. I think, actually I know, that when I put spiritual things first, everything else falls into place...no matter how difficult things may seem.
This morning I woke up early and went swimming with my friend Becca. After we got back I had some extra time before class to read my scriptures. What is so interesting is that usually I'm too tired to read my scriptures so I wait until later to read them, but today I felt that I really needed to read them in the morning. My scripture study truly set the mood for the entire day. I was reading about Ammon and King Lamoni and I was just so impressed. I could feel the spirit so strongly as I read those verses...and I didn't even fall asleep! Haha.
Then later I decided to go to the temple. (Even though I have a paper due tomorrow, well today now, for Japanese literature that is worth a whole lot of our final grade....which I didn't start before going.) I was debating whether it was the right thing to do, but eventually I decided that the temple would be a worthwhile break from all the stresses and studying. I could not have asked for a more peaceful experience than what I had in the temple. After going to the temple I felt completely rejuvenated. :)
The world is a great place :)
