Over the weekend I found some of my old CDs that my teenage-self loved. Yesterday I spent my morning commute reliving my drive as my 18/19 year old self. Part of me misses how carefree I used to be due to my minimal responsibilities. As I listened, I was reminded how much time we really spent just listening to music and driving. We rarely had a destination, but we would drive and it was wonderful. Too often I find myself rushing to my destination and I forget to enjoy the drive. Yesterday I did just that and it was wonderful. For that 40 minutes, I just listened and drove. It was a small and slightly magical thing.
Today, I'm trying to be better. A better friend, a better wife and a better me. I am trying to be the version of me that I'd feel comfortable being while standing at the feet of the Savior and my Heavenly Father. It's a work in progress. ;)
Thankful Thursday: the Atonement, the gospel of Jesus Christ, the beautiful rain and clouds, the knowledge that I have, my talents, my super cute husband.
Also: Happy Mother's Day to my awesome Mother and all the other moms in my life! (This is your reminder! Call your mom and send your grandmas a card!)
Happy Thursday, everyone!
XOXO,
