Today is a listen to Sarah Bareilles' song Gravity over and over again kind of day.
I have started seeking counseling to begin to learn how to like myself and to forgive myself and others in my life....My counselor asked me what I liked about myself and at the time I couldn't think of a single thing without coming up with a reason as to why I don't like that trait anymore or a negative reason as to why I am that way.....but after not sleeping all night I came up with 5 by myself:
1- I am a hard worker
2- I am determined
3- I am compassionate
4- I am open minded
5- I honestly believe I can do anything I want
On a side note I want to make a shirt that says: "I have been to hell and back and all I got was this lousy t-shirt"
I wish I had tinted windows in my car....I wonder what people think as they see me crying in my car on the free way.

The best counseling you can ever get is by the Holy Ghost and a establishing a consistent pattern of scripture study, prayer, and church attendance!
I'm not even kidding. I know because I always thought I needed counseling or there was something wrong with me before I joined the church. It's been three years and ever since I've established those patterns, I've realized that the Atonement is the only thing that can help us be consistently happy and at peace. When we don't do those things we easily get in a trap and feel very little self worth. The minute we decide to commit to doing those things everyday it makes the biggest difference and suddenly life just doesn't seem so hard anymore. LOVE YOU! Stay strong. :)
Also, you are an amazing cook and just plain fun to be around.
