Being a Happy Single Lady :)

The title drew you in...didn't it?

If you have read my blog before then you know that I am as single as they come. Yep. I just threw that out there into the blogging world.

So today in my LDS Marriage and Family class....
Side note: Yes. I am taking a LDS Marriage and Family class. Yes, I am taking it while I am single. And yes, it is counting as a religion credit. Anyway...

So today in LDS Marriage and Family we were discussing how to be a whole and happy single. It was a wonderful discussion and it really made me reflect a lot about my own life.

I am happy. I am actually happier this last summer than I have ever been. It is wonderful. I am enjoying being myself and getting to know people. It is wonderful!

As I was listening to the discussion in my class today, I came to this realization. Relationships are not just about a man loving a woman and a woman loving a man. It is about a man loving God and a woman loving God, with both wanting to be obedient to His will. That is what makes successful relationship work, at least from what I have seen (not that I have any personal experience in this area).

When we come closer to God and closer to Christ, we are able to see happiness. I am talking eternal, wonderful, and radiating happiness. As I said before, this summer I have felt happier than I have ever been. I attribute this happiness to this idea.

So right now, as a single lady, I am doing all that I can to become closer to God. I want to be obedient to His will and have a close enough relationship with Him that when the right guy comes along who is close to God, I will be worthy of that guy and that relationship as well.

I am single. I am happy. So...
Come what may and love it!

Quick Housing Update

So I got an email yesterday saying that I will get to choose my housing on April 1st. Really, that is pretty good. Housing opens for others on March 28th...and I have heard as far away as April 13th. So I am counting my blessings and hoping that everything that I want to work out will work out. :) Come what may and love it!

Life as we know it...

Okay people. Brace yourselves for a really long blog post about my life. It has been way too long since I have blogged and I have the burning desire to get it all out! *NOTE: There are grammar and spelling errors. I know. Get over it. Life is good. That is the first time I have been able to say this and mean it in a long time. This last year has been one of the hardest ones for me, but at last I am in a spot where I feel good again. I still have sorrows and trials. Life is still not perfect, but it is good. I have friends. Isn't that a good thing to have? I have a better relationship with my Heavenly Father- also a wonderful thing to have! So I moved. I forget if I already blogged about this, but if I have then you will have to bear with me. I moved from a situation that was not the best into one of the best places I have ever been. Can I just say that my ward is the best ward in the world? Seriously though! I love it. If you are in my ward and reading this, then this is a sho...

Answered Prayers

To those of you who heard my testimony today, I apologize that I am repeating myself. This is an experience I just needed to write down for myself. Let's rewind to Monday night. I hadn't been feeling all that great. I had only gotten 3 hours of sleep the night before. I just was ready to go to bed. I told myself that I would come home from FHE and go to sleep. I was in my pajamas by 8:30- crazy for a college student, right? One of my friends dropped in for a visit. After she left, I had one of those moments where I just felt completely alone. I went to my room and prayed when a few simple words came to my mind. "Heavenly Father, Are you really there? And do you hear and answer every child's prayer?" These two lines from the children's primary song were stuck in my mind. In the moment, it is easy to doubt that Heavenly Father answers our prayers. How can He really hear every single prayer around the world? How can He answer every single one? It just ...
