Goals

I find it interesting that the one thing that has brought me out of darkness almost every time has been goals.

This last few Weeks I have met with my bishop many times. Finally he encouraged me to make goals. Why that never came to mind is beyond me.

So, I went home and made some goals. I made a lot of goals. Many of them are things I can do on a daily basis, some of them are going to take some time. The bishop seemed to be concerned that I set so many goals, but I know I can do them.

This week, I have been sick and although I have not felt well, I have done as many goals as physically possible. Many of my goals need work and I will get there.

The important thing to remember is that when you have something to work toward, you have purpose in life, whether it is for you our for someone else.

I find myself often asking the question "why am I here?". The answer may not be clear to me right now, but I know with work and as I try to have faith and trust, it will come.

So today, I am swimming, which is much better than sinking in the deep. I am starting to see the light at the surface of the water and I know as I continue to work toward my goals, I will reach the surface.

I hope that his hand is there to help me up when I do finally reach the surface.

Sincerely, me.
