Back in Step

It is good to be back from spring break! I wish I could say I worked hard at my goals over break, but that would not be entirely true. I did think about my spiritual wellness from time to time, but I was not nearly as focused on accomplishing my goals as I am at school. The only real time I focused on strengthening my spiritual wellness was when I visited my grandparents. They are very religious and shared some of their wisdom and tips with me. I really enjoyed listening to their advice and encouragement.

I was then faced with a decision, I could either go out with my friends that night or stay and visit with my grandparents. I rarely get time to sit down and talk, just me and my grandparents, and I knew they were so happy to have me visiting that I couldn't leave. I stayed for a good portion of the night and helped my Grandma make dinner and listened to stories about "the war" from my Grandpa.

Though I  would have liked to have gone out with my friends, part of my goal involves having my actions reflect my faith. By staying with my grandparents, I put their thoughts and feelings before my own, and making them happy makes me feel happy.

Now that I am back from spring break, I am ready to get back in step with my goals, and work hard to make sure I succeed in accomplishing them on time!
