Sometimes, it's okay to cry.

Cry,
For no reason,
When you watch Pocahontas,
For other people's mistakes,
Because you have been strong for such a long time,
Because you can't make cookies without burning them,
For your best friend ,
If you're happy,
When you are lost,
Because you are frustrated,
Because you want to start over,
When you realize what you are capable of,
If you don't know what else to do,
When you forgive others.

“Perhaps our eyes need to be washed by our tears once in a while, so that we can see Life with a clearer view again.”
 I'm just having one of those days where I do everything wrong. I can really tell that Satan has been on me today. He always works the hardest when I try do what's right and be a better person. You know you're doing something right if Satan won't leave you alone. I really am trying to be strong, be an example, be more patient, more loving. It's putting a lot of pressure on me. I know that Satan is real and that he knows my weaknesses. He always comes into my mind telling me that I am not good enough, not pretty enough, not talented enough, and not at all special.
 "We spend so much time and energy comparing ourselves to others-Usually comparing our weaknesses to their strengths." Brother Uchtdorf 
I have to remind myself that the Atonement covers all temptations and negative thoughts that Satan provides me with. Then I have to recognize how beautiful my life really is. Counting my blessings one by one. Tomorrow will be a better day. But today, it's okay to cry.
