Personal Happiness Project: week 2

This week's letter of emphasis is "B" and the challenge is to "Be present. Be bold." So I will try to focus on what is going on now. Kyle has been looking at grad schools and started making plans for taking tests and applying to programs for next fall. Our future is super fuzzy right now, which is super scary, but the time we are spending together and the habits we are developing now are what matter (and a plan is developing, which has a significant calming effect). We still don't have an apartment, but things have been crazy so the search will resume...umm...soon.

Speaking of crazy, this week we will be celebrating our anniversary that was a few weeks ago. Two years has gone by so fast! Also we are going to Stadium of Fire to see the Beach Boys (ahhh!!). So excited! This will be an awesome week to live in the moment and focus on the memories we are creating.


"Diligently doing the things that matter most will lead us to the Savior of the world."--President Dieter F. Uchtdorf.

As for the second part of this week's goal, yikes! I guess this is also face-your-fears week! Maybe being bold with sharing the Gospel? Saying hi to strangers? Trying new things? I'm not sure how this one will play out, but we'll see. It'll take some work.

Either way, being present and focusing on the things that matter most in our lives will bring us closer to our Heavenly Father, which will help us to love our families, friends, and others around us more.
