Really figuring it out

Someone sent me this link to an amazing blog http://thegabblog.blogspot.com/ she has such wonderful insights on life, kids, the church and everyday things. It got me to thinking how I wish I could write amazing insights into my life and feelings. Not to mention got me thinking how come I can't be creative with this whole blog thing which then got me thinking how come I just can't be creative with anything, which then got me thinking what a lousy housekeeper, mother, wife, friend, daughter, member of the church and just about anything else I could think of to put myself down. Which then got me thinking somehow about the wonderful weekend I had last week when I was in Montana with such amazing women. In that 4 days the heavens opened up to me and the Lord was my constant companion. (along with Angela) we laughed we cried and he told me that he loves me that I am HIS Daughter that he does not compair me to others he knows me for who I am and what I am about and what I can do. So I still admire Gab and her wonderful blog and there is a part of me that hopes to have the words and insights like she has to share one day. But like I said until then I am ok with being me and still learning and growing.
