"If I interrupt my impulses in the crucial moments, by the reminders of my goals, my chances of success increase greatly!"

Kyle shared this quote with me in the exact moment that I needed it.  I love the perfect way that he strengthens, encourages and helps me feel better when I lose a little bit of the perspective that I need.  Lately I have been feeling like I won't enjoy life until I am done with school, but I don't want to be one of those people that doesn't enjoy the journey and regrets the moments not lived when I had the chance.  What is the point of saving all our money if we never use it for the memories we wanted to make in the first place?  We are trying so hard to do things the right way, but will it pay off? Will it be worth it?  Or will we end up just as happy as the people who never had to try as hard?  But then we shouldn't be comparing ourselves to anyone else because life is never fair.  Some things just come easier to others at times and we each have our own obstacles.  I love that Kyle and I are debt free, even though it means I can't justify buying myself new clothes, going out to eat all the time or having a smart phone.  I love the chance I had to live in Hawaii, go on a mission and help Kyle get through school even though it means that I'm not graduated yet and don't have time to even make Kyle dinner at night or start a family.  I am not impulsive and that is why I am reaching my goals.  I am powering through and I know that I am learning everything I need right now to be the mother I always wanted to be in the future.  I am happy now and I know I will be just as happy in the future and into eternity.  I have the hope of the gospel, my best friend at my side and the determination to do things the right way to reach my goals.  Life doesn't always go as we plan, but as long as we are living in the boundaries of God's plan then we will be happy where ever He directs our life to go.
