Moment #1

Moment from the last week of my life:

That moment when you realize how grateful you are to have amazing people in your life that will be there for you no matter what.

That moment when you realize ignorance is bliss and wish with all your heart you go back to being ignorant.

That moment when you see your prayers being answered and you can’t help but smile.

The moment you know your whole life will change in the next 11 weeks, and you feel scared, excited and sad all at once.

That moment when you love someone no matter what they have said or done even though it kills you.

That moment when you remember you are never alone, and if you only see on set of footprints it is because He is carrying you through this time in your life.  


The moment your remember that … Life Goes On.

Moments Intro

Wow! It has been a while. When nothing is happening in your life you have a lot more time to blog but nothing to blog about. 

Even though I don't have a lot going on in my life right now I always have moments. Let me explain that. I have come to realize that life is made up of moments. These moments make up who we are. The moments I am talking of are not just the everyday moments in life. These moments are the ones that have an impact on our lives. These moments can be really exciting, stressful, happy, sad or scary. 

These moment make an impact on our life, for good or bad. These are the moment we will never forget. Many times we do know realize that one of these moment has happened until after the fact. These moment can not be planned, or expected. They come out of know where and surprise you. 

For example:
The moment when you find out that your friend who is only 17 years old has passed way.
The moment you decided to move to school
Along with that the moment you meet your new roommates and seriously reconsider your decision.
The moment you watch your grandpa slip from this earth, and the peace you did not expect to feel.
The moment you find out you are going to be an aunt!
The moment you realize you are an Aggie and there is nothing that will ever change that.
The moment you gain your own testimony that the church is true. 
That first moment you walk in to the temple for the first time.



And simpler moment like:
The moment when you are hanging out with your sisters and if feels like old times, and you cant help but smile.
The moment you storm the court after USU just won the WAC Championship and you touch Tai, and Brady.
The moment you are hanging out with your friends and you realize you really will be friends for ever, even though it sounds cheesy. 
The moment you and your entire Edwards family leave behind the modern world and spend a week in the woods.
The moment the Hurd starts the "winning team losing team" chant. 

And the moments I hope to have:
All the moments I will have with my future husband.
The moment I marry him in the Lords House for time and all eternity.
The moments I will have with my future children. 
All the moments I have left as an Aggie student.
The moments you have left with your family.

All of these moments make up our lives along with so many more moments. We have small moments everyday that can change the rest of our lives or just change the next couple days. 
I have been wanting to start a weekly blog post and I finally decided what it would be. It will be Moments. The moments from my week and other peoples weeks that are worth mentioning. I have not decided what day I will do it so be looking for it. 

There is always the moment when you realize that... Life (will) Goes On.
