Happiness

Monday, June 13, 2011

I'm sitting here, on my bed, eating lemon heads like they are popcorn reflecting on my choice to move here to Utah. I really think I made the right choice. I think that there's something good in store for me here.  To be quite honest I was pretty nervous at first when I considered making the move. Ever since I have been here though I have been nothing but happy.  

 I have met some amazing people who are just so fun to be around. I am so happy for that. I really NEED that right now in my life.  I feel like I haven't had "friends" to spend time with in such a long time, that it really is a breath of fresh air. 

I wasn't going to move down to Utah until the Fall but then a friend of mine called me and told me that she was moving to Provo. We found an awesome deal on an apartment so we moved in during the summer.  $79 a month + utilities. How can you beat that? My contracts is only good through the 19th of August though, so I'm still trying to find a place for Fall! Wish me luck!

 I finally decided on an Esthetician school, I decided on...AVEDA! I am so excited. I fell in love with the place when I went, it has such a great atmosphere.

 I started my new job at Spring Mobile today which was... interesting. I think I'll just have to power through it, but a job is a job and that is a blessing. 

I feel like I have become so much closer to my Heavenly Father since I moved here. It feels so good, it really makes me happy. It makes me happy because for months I was angry. I was bitter. I was upset. I didn't understand how divorce could happen to me. That something that happens to someone else. Someone that's older. Someone with grown kids. Not a 19 year old girl. 

But it did.

Life is good, and I am incredibly happy! I am blessed because I chose to push away my anger, my pride, and my hurt. I'm choosing to live again. I'm choosing to find and be close to my Savior.

On June 1st 2011 this beautiful lady here slipped away and returned to heaven. She was the most amazing great grandma and I love her so much!

I cried my eyes out when I found out that she was gone. I'll miss her but this life is so short. It won't be long until we are reunited again. What is even better though is that she is now reunited with so many of her loved ones that have gone on before her. I can only imagine how happy her husband was to see her when they were reunited.

I never had the privilege of meeting my great grandfather but from what I heard from my great grandma, he was an amazing man!

Grandma Johnson, you were an amazing lady and I can't wait to see you again someday. I love you dearly, you will be loved, missed, and remembered always!
