Once Upon a Time...

Life, I'm starting to realize, is hard. Pft! The last month has been a struggle for me. I got to learn first hand the reason you shouldn't date in high school, and let me tell ya, I wish I hadn't. Everyone gets their hearts broken at least once, if not multiple times and I knew it would happen with me, I just never realized how hard it would be.
All in all I am still greatly blessed and know my Heavenly Father has His arms around me constantly comforting me and helping me through everything, telling me everything is going to be okay and that things are as they should be.
This experience has led me to wish I was older, it has made me want to start my life! A life I can only prepare for in high school. I want to know what my story holds, I don't want my future to just be a blank sheet of paper, I want to know what is in store, know that I will be happy, know that I will be loved.
I want the words, and they lived Happily Ever After to be now.
But lucky for me I have something in my life that will give me strength and comfort that those words will come. I will get my Happily Ever After because I have the gospel. No matter how blank the sheet of paper of my future is I will always have one thing written. I am a Daughter of my Heavenly Father, who loves me and I love him. And that is what is getting me through. I know that I was put into a family so strong in the gospel because I honestly don't know where I would be without it. It is my future, I will build what I become on it!
I have this picture as my phone wallpaper. Every time I look at it I know, with my whole heart my brother Jesus Christ is with me, holding me, comforting me. The gospel of Jesus Christ has given me that, what more  could I want.
Yes, I've had to go through some hard things this month, yes I've cried at least a dozen times, yes there are harder things to come, and yes, I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and can look at the future and say, "Bring It On!"
