Yesterday wasn't the best day of my life, nor was it the worst. Things just didn't go my way and certain experiences and events had me down. I rely on the Lord so much and I always have the faith that He'll give me some sort of a break in some way. Yesterday it didn't happen, but I knew He'd make up for it somehow. The Lord always comes through for me, I just have to stay positive and make sure to give thanks to Him.
Well today was just wonderful, even though it's not over yet! 4 of the 5 classes I interpret were cancelled today! Talk about a MAJOR break! I went from a horrible day yesterday to a wonderful day today! Looking back I'm actually glad things turned out the way they did. Heavenly Father knew that I might not have appreciated such a BIG break today if things had gone better yesterday. Or perhaps if I had a small break today and a small break yesterday, I would have just "expected it" and not been more grateful. Either way, I'm happy things happened this way.
So, I got laundry done, did some reading (skill development), went to lunch with my mom and dad, and enjoyed my time off! The one class I did interpret went really well. Plus I saw a huge flock of birds on my way to school. There were probably like 200 birds flying around. It was beautiful. Yet another gift from our Heavenly Father. He gives them to us all the time, we just have to look for them and be grateful!

YOU SAW THAT TOO? Dad and I almost drove off the road to see how beautiful they were all swooping and diving and twirling into figure eights and up and around. It was truly MAGICAL. We said "LOOK, a tender mercy! We hope Kat's seeing this!!!!!" I forgot you were in the car right ahead of us, so we're so glad you saw it!
Thanks for sharing that. I've been thinking along the same lines that it’s our attitude that makes the difference; he is blessing our lives all around us we just need to open our eyes and recognize it. Hope things go your way with whatever you’re troubled with. Lots of love.
didn't know you had a blog!!! love it. love you.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. What a wonderful perspective to have.
Jeff and I take a moment each evening to talk about what we're grateful for that day. It's a fun way to keep life in perspective, and to share little things from our day like seeing a flock of birds or a really gorgeous sunrise.
