Perfectly Imperfect
Well I have been having a rough patch, but I'm on the mend and doing much better. I had a hard week last week. I have been quite depressed. I think it's partly the weather, partly my hormones (the lack there of), and partly me letting my thoughts get away from me. I have just been really depressed and couldn't pull myself out of it. I finally had a good cry and let it all out. It turns out I have been putting an enormous amount of pressure on myself and feeling like a huge failure. I guess I forgot how much I am needed and loved. Kaipo helped me realize that I don't have to be perfect and I am loved even though I have faults. It's part of life to make mistakes. I get so wrapped up in trying to get it all right that I forget that I will never be perfect in this lifetime and all I can do is my best and sometimes my best is just getting by. So if you are struggling and feeling depressed and it's because you are being too hard on yourself - remember that you don't have to be perfect and maybe your imperfection is supposed to teach someone else. Trust in the powers that be, and know that Heavenly Father loves you no matter what.

Phew - I'm glad to know you aren't perfect - it takes some of the pressure off, don't you think! I'm so sorry that you've been down. What a bummer. Just keep in mind all that there is to look forward to - a summer barbecue with me, spring, summer, flowers, birds... I just can't wait - and you are a month closer than I! Have a great day - I love you
