Gratitude

  My Interpersonal Communications Professor was describing what love felt like to him or how he has felt love. He described it as a feeling of Gratitude. Even though he is a little anti-Mormon and I'm sure he didn't mean for this to be religious I have thought about it a lot and I agree with this whole-heartedly. I feel like this is another precious truth that has been given to me. 
  The times that I have felt the most love in my life it has resulted in a feeling of deep gratitude. First, from my Heavenly Father and my Savior Jesus Christ, but also from family, friends, and even some boys that have been in my life.
  Recently I have had to make some major decisions and alter some plans of mine and it has been a little stressful. Through all of the stress though I have been able to feel an overwhelming sense of love from my father in Heaven. There have been things that have happened in the last month that have reminded me that the Lord knows every detail of my life and he has everything under control. Each day I feel like he is teaching me a little more about who I am and what my mission is here on earth. There is still a lot of searching for me to do, but I finally feel like I'm moving forward. I am so excited for whatever the future brings and for whatever it has to teach me.

Lately I have been filled with a lot of love. And I am so grateful.
