Changing Yourself

Yesterday, I was sitting in the temple, feeling a little bit sad about some things. Don't get me wrong, my life is great, especially now that I get to dance again (plus I got Jeremy's first letter to me from Finland!). The only problem is that I am tired of waiting for things. I thought that once college started, I wouldn't have to anymore. Wrong.
Well, as I was sitting in the temple, it was busy and so I opened the scriptures while I was waiting. I was semi-randomly flipping through D&C, looking at the scripture mastery. While doing that, I ran across the scripture D&C 64:32-34. It was exactly what I needed right then.
That, combined with our lesson in relief society today showed me that I have a lot to work on in my life, especially with looking at how I can serve others and with being more positive. There's something good in everything and I need to find it. I decided I am not going to complain about things anymore, only look at what is good about a situation. It's going to be hard, changing yourself always is. But I can do it, eventually.
I just have to keep trying when I mess up.
