Somewhere between “Once upon a time” and “they lived happily ever after” is the rest of your life. Dieter Uchtdorf explores how you get from here to there in his book, “Your Happily Ever After.”
Your life might not have spindle pricks, poison apples, or frogs to kiss but I’m guessing you probably have your share of tough times and good times. But, if your life isn’t all roses, aren’t you doing something wrong?
Unfortunately, a lot of voices out there seem to put most of the blame on you if your life doesn’t include a free pass to Club Med. President Uchtdorf sends you and me a reality check:
“Sometimes we need a reminder that life was never all sunshine and roses for the fairy-tale princesses. ….each princess had to overcome adversity before she reached her happily ever after.”
Take heart when you seem to hit life’s hard spots, create a great support network, and keep your perspective set on using your experiences as stepping stones to your happily ever after!
Best wishes,
Coach A.
