So, I've had a little eye opening tonight which I am so thankful for. The past little while, I've been really frustrated and well, focusing on some negative things. It wasn't things having to do with myself (well a little was I guess) but mostly things with people I love. I wasn't wondering why these things are or have been happening because I know there is a reason for everything, even if I don't know what the reason is. But I've just been frustrated with the various things. In the back of my mind, these have had me kind of down. I was going about life as normal and things have been fine however, I have had these things in the back of my mind at all times. Well, I just received some news from one of these individuals (one of my best friends in the world), it was great news and I realized something very important. Although she has had constant faith, I have had tunnel vision. I have seen these horrible things happening to people around me which I've tried to be a support to them and stuff but I have not seen the blessings that these people do have. The trials have been big enough to take away focus from the constant blessings which we take advantage of so often. I have some amazing people around me who are such great examples to me in my life. People who teach me that we must have faith no matter how long it takes for certain trials to work out. God knows us individually and is constantly blessing us in different ways. We just need to recognize those blessings, do our very best, and in God's time things will all work out the way they should. I know I really need to work on focusing on staying out of a tunnel and clinging to the many blessings in my life and the lives of those I love.

I'm glad things are going well, but sometimes it is really hard to see things from an eternal perspective. I'm glad you were able to find it though, what an example :)
