Major Discouragment

I haven't yet been able to pick myself up again. I am trying so darn hard, and it's just not enough.

No, I haven't been reading my scriptures. No, I haven't been praying. Can these things effect my day this much?

Where do you find the strength to pick your self up again?

I hate beating a dead Horse.

It has to be in the simple things. But why are the simple things so HARD to follow through with?

I wish I were there Amberlyn!

Keep going.

When you are really down, I think you need to focus on the good things in your life and let some things go.

I think for me, that has been the hardest. Letting go of things.

I know you want to be the best mom, homemaker, wife, etc. you can be.

But trying to be perfect isn't possible, and if that is what you want for yourself, it isn't going to work.

Do your best. Realize you are going to fall down. Get back up. You are a wonderful person and worthy, and derserving.

Move forward. That is all you can do. And it is enough.

The simple things are the easiest to ignore and neglect but they are also the easiest to resume and recapture. Not reading your scriptures? Not the end of the world because you can pick them up at any time. You are doing just fine. Remember that we all have a time and season for all the aspects of our lives. It's in the figuring out what season we are in and being okay with that 'season' that brings comfort and hope.
