Realization
So, I was listening to Pres. Uchtdorf's talk, "Of Things That Matter Most", and I really liked a line from it - "Strength comes not from frantic activity but from being settled on a firm foundation of truth and light." - Oct 2010. Lately that has been applicable to me, because I have been expending so much time and energy on trying to figure out what to do with my life (as far as selecting a major goes) that I have lost some perspective of what life is all about. I have frequently felt that I will be a failure if I pick the wrong thing, but I am slowly starting to realize that it doesn't matter what I do for a career as much as it matters how I live my life, in regard to my future happiness. (Obviously it would be helpful to pick something that will easily support a family though - and that's what I am doing). He goes on to say that it is helpful for us to take time to refocus our lives on the simple things that ALWAYS lead us to true happiness. If we keep our lives centered around these principles of the Gospel, we will continually lead happy lives, even though we may have struggles along the way.
