One door closes, another opens!

Wow, I have seriously been needing to update my blog! I am such a facebooker I always forget about this, but I think it is important because on blogger I am able to kinda get my thoughts out, which is nice. As the year is quickly coming to a close it's time for me to start reflecting on what's happened this year and on what I want to change for next year. There really is so much I need to change! I have really wasted alot of time this year on focusing on what I don't have in my life rather then what I do have. I read a quote I thought was so good. I can't remember the exact wording but it went someting like, "Whenever one door of happiness closes, another one will open, but sometimes we are so focused on the closed door that we don't see the one that has opened." I know that has happened to me this year. I was doing so good for awhile there and then I kind of started to slip on my goals and focusing on that dang shut door again! I hate when I do that because then I waste so much time being unhappy and I miss out on the blessings that Heavenly Father wants to give me, but is having a hard time doing so because I won't let him. Although I hit this little bump, though, I am excited for this new year. Begginnings are so refreshing! They are a chance to revamp yourself, to really give yourself a makeover. I am excited for a long overdo makeover:) I just know that this year has amazing opportunities that lie ahead! I have no idea what they are, but I know they're there...waiting. So look out 2009! There's a new Julee Woods on the loose! haha;)
