Phew.

Summer semester is killer.  I am doing good though.  I have two A's and two B's.  One of those B's is about to turn into an A, because I am going to turn in three extra credit papers (worth 5 points each) next week.  I am striving for all A's.  I may not be able to get one in Astronomy, though.  It is WAY harder than I thought it would be when I signed up.  I currently have a B.  That is good.  I have a big test next week over THREE chapters.  That is going to be rough.  I will be studying VERY hard for that test.

Spiritually all is well.  I truly feel the Lord's hand in my life.  I am so grateful for the simple blessings that I have.  I am also truly grateful for the trials that He has given me in my life thus far.  How would I know the joy if it were not for the sorrow? How would I know good health, if I had not had pain and/or injury in my life? How would I know love, if I had not experienced rejection and/or hate?

I am so thankful for my life.  I am so thankful for the trials and adversities that I have had to endure.  I am thankful for the family and friends that I have.  I am thankful for this opportunity that I have to go to college.  I am thankful for my job. 

I can honestly say that my "thank you" list is MUCH MUCH longer than my "I want/need" list.

Isn't it a nice point when we come to realize our blessings and concentrate on that area of our live instead of our trials.  Nice thought, "my thank you list is much much longet than my I want/need list."
