Oh, what a beautiful morning.

It’s 5:45 A.M.
I think to myself...is this real life? I must be dreaming, because I am UP and AWAKE...ready to run. Ready to do something that seemed impossible a short time ago.

This week begins my morning workout routine. It’s day two, and I feel better than I have in quite some time. There’s something invigorating about waking up when most everyone (in Provo) is still asleep, walking outside in the crisp, cool air, driving to the gym, and pushing myself to go a little farther, to be a little better.

And I’ve noticed a few things already.
I have more time to pray and study my scriptures before work and class, which before, only happened on occasion.
My body and mind are more invigorated (D&C 88:124 IS true)
Between work, school, projects, socializing, and everything else...there is somehow time for all of those things.
I'm happier

Now I will say that by 4:00pm yesterday, I was SO done with everything and just wanted to rest my head for a bit. But I pushed forward, and all is well. And I’m sure that will get better with time.

You see, I couldn’t quite express how I’ve felt these past few days. And thanks to my friend, who’s recent blog post shared a link to some really great things...I found this little gem.


First it begins inside your heart. Something moves. Then opens. Then frees itself. And now, you feel a rhythm breaking its long silence. This is going to be good…

Exactly. THIS is going to be good. And I’m ready for it.
