What are you waiting for?

Have you ever been doing something that you love to do and then look at the clock and realize that it has been several hours? When in reality it seems like only 5 minutes. Well don't be afraid to say yes in your mind because it has definitely happened to me and I am pretty sure most everyone has had the same experience.

I have been serving my mission for just about a year now and I cannot believe how fast the time has gone. It seems like yesterday I was packing my bags to enter into the missionary training center (MTC).
It sometimes frightens me to look back and realize how fast time has gone because I often realize, and have some regret on the things that I could have done in the past.

Regret is one of the adversary's greatest tools. It can cause someone to become depressed, less confident in themselves, and dwell in the past.

I know that we aren't superhuman and can't do everything that we want, and obviously there will always be things that we wish we would have done, but as the old saying goes, "it is water under the bridge".

Something that we can do is, "live it up," every second we have and enjoy the life that God has given us. MAKE THE MOST OF IT!
As we live and keep the commandments that our loving Heavenly Father has given to us, we will find so much joy in our life and will be able to look back each day and say to ourselves. WHAT A GREAT DAY!

I have been trying my hardest to recognize the blessings I receive everyday to help me live each day with little regret.

I want to say to everyone, "WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?" Get out there and live your life to the fullest. God has a wonderful plan for you and all you have to do is listen to his council.
Keep your head up and your eyes looking forward. There is not enough time for us to be looking back.
