My life is so hard

I was thinking in my meetings this morning (by the way I am the new RS President in our student married ward) that my life is too freakin busy and hard and poor pitiful me. Then of course Heavenly Father kicked me in the butt with helping me realize to not look and the past and be focused on the future and what I can learn from it. Also to listen to the spirit more and trust myself that I know what is best. He will tell me if I am wrong. I just really had an epiphany (?) today and realized that this is not what I want but this is what I need so I better like it. We were at Gage's house the other day for his graduation bash and this sign they had at his parents really struck me. I have heard this so many times but usually in reference to material things but this week it brought on a whole different meaning. Success is having what you want. Happiness is loving what you have. You know I really just want to be happy. Usually I am pretty optimistic but today gave me the extra kick in the pants to be better about being happy for the things that the Lord has in store for us. So here I go on my crazy adventure as a new Relief Society President and to all the crazy new adventures the Lord has for me. BRING IT ON!
