When you fall down...get back up.

I haven't written on here in a little while and must make up for it. Life is constantly moving forward. There is no point where we can simply sit down and enjoy the scenery as it passes by. People try all the time, only to find that things don't go the way that they thought they would. I had an interesting and very personal moment today where I felt that I had fallen to my lowest. Things seemed to go wrong in every possible way. I then took a moment to breathe and to sing some hymns. I actually started out singing the song You Raise Me Up, which isn't a hymn, but has a comforting message about the Savior. As I sang, the spirit touched me so strongly, bringing tears to my eyes and making it hard to sing. I knew that at that moment, even in my own depths of despair, that my Heavenly Father was aware of me and what I was going through. My Savior suffered for those feelings so that He could know how to succor me in my time of need. Feeling the embrace of the spirit and unseen messengers from our Father in Heaven is one of the most amazing feelings that I have ever experienced. I then decided that I needed to make a change. Any change that would release some of the built up emotions I had swirling around inside of me. So I chose to cut my hair. I cut it myself, which was pretty easy, and instantly felt lighter. The change was something simple yet so profound. I love change and I think in my low moments, I'm kind of telling myself that I need a change. You know, not that I'm doing something wrong, I just need something new to excite me and help push me forward. As life is always moving forward, with or without us. Thank you so much for your time and have a wonderful weekend.
