Families are Forever

Lately I find myself wishing I was surrounded with more good friends. Ones that believe in the same things I do. Ones that stand behind me and support me. Ones that want the same things out of life and have similar goals.

But then, after I think of how fun it would be to have people to always call or text. People that would be there at the drop of the hat, and people that don't care if you sit and complain to them about whatever meaningless problems you are having. I realize that I DO have that.

I realize that my husband and family ARE always there for me and are all I need.
I will always have them with me. FOREVER.
I am blessed enough to be sealed to my husband for time and all eternity. I get to learn and grow with Andrew each and every day. I get to come home and talk about work with him. I get to plan silly dates with him and dream of our future together. I get to plan trips with him and experience the world with him.

And after I realize this, I remember that I have no reason to sit and wish and wonder about what friends will come and go. Because no matter what, I'll always be sealed to the love of my life. For time and all eternity.

Also, not only do I get to spend time with Andrew forever, I am also sealed to my family. FOREVER.
No single thing is more amazing and comforting than knowing that fact.

I am so grateful for the knowledge I have of the gospel. I am grateful that I get to learn more about the gospel each and every day. I am grateful for my Heavenly Father. I am grateful for the spirit I feel and for the chances I have to share the gospel with others. I don't know what I would do without the gospel in my life and am so grateful for the impact it has on me.
