There's Always Good, but Sometimes I Don't See It

Today I got to have a chat with two lovely ladies.
I've mentioned Angelynn(whom I love alot) before but I've never mentioned Paige.
She's a beautiful person, on the inside and the outside.
The past month I was feeling down.
My heart felt like it was being put in a blender.
Well, after a chat on Sunday and a few realizations I started to feel better.

I really am doing good, but after today I am doing great.
Paige gave me a new outlook on life and I realized that I do deserve better.
I am a daughter of God and I deserve to be treated like a princess.
I can't make someone see my point of view or make them change theirs.
I realized that good things can be worked out but only if both people are willing to work.
It's funny she didn't say some of these things, but I still learned these lessons from her.
I learned a lot of other lessons as well.

I wish I could have had a pen to write down everything Paige said.
She was almost in the exact situation as me but just on the opposite side.
Her insight was amazing and I needed to hear her story.
She is an answered prayer.

As much as I still want things to work out I am moving on.
So how am I doing that?
I have been on two dates this week and I might have one on Saturday.
I loved my "date" on Tuesday, but that's because  I was babysitting.
Give me a kid on a date and I will happy!
Now my second date was not my favorite date.
I learned a lot of things.
For instance, I do not like squid or shrimp.
I never want to go on a date when someone spends all of that money on me.
I am not a public person.
I will not hold a boys' hand if I do not like them.
It's alright to tell a boy that you just got out of a relationship and you are not interested.
I never thought I would have to do anything like that.

One of the biggest lessons I learned  is that it's alright to be sad and still want.
However, I do need to move on and give other people a chance.
My relationship with my Heavenly Father and savior is the most important relationship.
I am going to focus on that and being a better disciple of Christ.
I am going to focus on finishing up the healing process.
I think Paige was the disinfectant and gauze I needed for my bullet wound.
Now I just need the scar to come.
Terrible analogy?
Probably! :)

Tonight I am HAPPY, HEALING, and THANKFUL.
Life is good!!
Look for the good everyday, and I think we will all be shocked.
