This weekend was amazing! I did so many fun things with my friends :) I've realized that happiness doesn't just come, you make it happen; you can choose to be happy and do exciting things or you can choose not to. Today, Brittany and I even hiked the Y! It was tough, but so worth it. The view at the top and the good work out that we got made up for everything else. The hike was a little more difficult than I expected it to be and I found myself getting tired pretty easily. The whole while, I was thinking about how I just wanted to get to the top so that we could see what was up there and come back down and go to Jamba Juice (Jamba is really what kept me motivated lol). Anyway, whenever I started to complain in my mind, a story that was told at General Conference kept coming into my mind (I forgot who it was by). Anyway, the gist of it is that they were on a hike and one person kept asking how far do we have to go, and the other answered by saying that instead of asking how much they had left, they should look how far we've come. Life isn't so much about reaching the end. The experiences that we have aren't just there to finish and get over with, they're there to help us grow so that whenever we look back on our lives we'll be able to see how much we've grown and how far we've come.
I hope that made sense, because it made sense in my mind! Anyway, have a wonderful day :)
