.husband accidentally ran into
the wall yesterday
and broke one of our
wedding pictures.
.i would have been upset
had it not been one of the only
times we have been able to run
around the house playing,
like we normally do,
in weeks.
.so instead we just relished
in the fact that we were
able to be in each other's
company and not
be studying.
.atleast for a few minutes, anyway.
.speaking of busy.
.yesterday at church the
women got a free ticket
and
the men had to take
over our responsibilities.
.that means husband
was in primary.
.but enough of that.
.what i learned was that
i've been trying to do it all.
.full time job,
full time school,
sometimes what feels like
a full time calling,
and then i'm supposed
to do more than that?.
.the answer is yes.
.however.
.i learned
i can't do it all
even if i want too.
.but even though
i can't what i can do
and be is busy
and that is okay
as long as i am maintaining
the things that are most important.
.this quote really struck
me yesterday and so obviously
i had to share.
"A good woman knows that she does not have enough time, energy,
or opportunity to take care of all of the people or
do all of the worthy things her heart yearns to do.
Life is not calm for most women, and each day seems to require
the accomplishment of a million things, most of which are important.
A good woman must constantly resist alluring and deceptive messages
from many sources telling her that she is entitled
to more time away from her responsibilities
and that she deserves a life of greater ease and independence.
But with personal revelation, she can
prioritize correctly and navigate this life confidently."
