Something Different... And pictures!!!

I don't usually write about stuff like this so, if you're not interested in reading my frustrations, I'll understand if you stop reading now. Have you ever had a hard time getting over something? Well, that's where I am now and I'm not really sure why. I know that on some level I'm choosing to feel the way that I do but I think I'm ready to let it go... maybe.

Whenever I think about it I remember this quote by Elder Bednar, "When we believe or say we have been offended, we usually mean we feel insulted, mistreated, snubbed, or disrespected. And certainly clumsy, embarrassing, unprincipled, and mean-spirited things do occur in our interactions with other people that would allow us to take offense. However, it ultimately is impossible for another person to offend you or to offend me. Indeed, believing that another person offended us is fundamentally false. To be offended is a choice we make; it is not a condition inflicted or imposed upon us by someone or something else." You can read the rest of his talk HERE.

I'm hoping by writing this and getting it out I can start to let it go. Now on a lighter note... PICTURES!!!
