I have a family that loves me. I can see. I can listen to beautiful music and appreciate it. I can speak my mind when I want to. I've been able to be educated and am on a good track to returning to learn more. I know where I want to get to in life. I know what I want to get out of life.
How could life get any better?
I have some of the best friends ever who, even talking to them lately seems to be hit and miss, I know that they are there supporting me. They love me and are setting the most wonderful examples for me. One has chosen marriage and the other a mission then marriage. And I love them for their choices and know they've made them after much prayer and searching of their hearts.
How could life get any better?
I'm secure in my beliefs. I may not understand them all completely but I know that they're true. I know if I do all that I possibly can to become the daughter my parents (heavenly and those on earth) expect me to become, it will all work out in the end. I will run across that faithful son who can take me to the temple to create an eternal family. We will be built around love and our Savior.
How could life get any better?
Well... who's to say it can't? But at this moment, in my life, on my road back to my Father, it can't get any better until I've learned to appreciate every aspect of what I have right now. I don't understand why it has taken me longer to "grow up" in some ways but as long as I understand that it is right for me, that's all that matters... doesn't it?
How could life get any better?
I can walk. I can dance. I can feel. I can cry. I can laugh. I can give hugs. I can receive hugs. I can accept love. I can return love. I can see the good in those around me. I let them see the good in me. I don't wear masks as long as I can help it. I can take praise and I am working on taking criticism. I can write. I can express myself in ways others can and others can't. I find joy in the smallest things.
Oh, how I love to smile and laugh. Listen and comfort.
I'm thankful for who I am and the trials that have made me thus. I am thankful for the angels the Lord hand picks to send to me that buoy me up and remind me when I falter that He loves me always and that He understands my pains and recognizes when I'm giving it my all. I'm thankful for the Priesthood power that I can see in my father and other members of my family. The blessings that they bring into my life and the lives of those around me that I love simply by being faithful to what they know to be true.
