live in the present


A couple of days ago i came across this. this is such a sad photo. it's from january, when i was leaving hawaii for texas. this has yet to leave me, the feeling of regret, of leaving a place that i was happy at. but in the end i got tanner, and that is really what matters.

"Learn from the Past, Prepare for the Future, Live in the Present"- Thomas S. Monson

I really need to apply this to my life! I have always had the tendancy to dwell on the past, and also try living my life through the future but never really focusing on the present. Life is honestly good! And I have an amazing husband who likes to surprise me with chocolate and treats lol. So as sad as this photo is, it makes me happy. It allows me to feel sooooo much love! Love from me to Tanner, from Tanner to me!! Hawaii will always be cherished and a great blessing of learning and growing! And finding my eternal partner!! :)

This is a sad, but very sweet photo! I love the thought by Pres. Monson and I know it's something I need to remember every day! Greg and I have a little inside joke that kind of goes along with this from our first year of marriage! I'll have to explain it to you sometime! Anyway, thanks for sharing that thought, and I'm glad you and Tanner had a happy reunion after that day!! ;)
