Charmed or Blessed?

So recently I have had a few of my friends tell me that they are jealous of my life and happiness.. Ha when I hear that, all I can think is wow they really don't know me... However my mom has always said I have had a charmed life and I feel that I am not charmed but that I am blessed for my actions. Some struggles that I have seen my friends struggle with I have not had to struggle with but that is because I do everything I can to follow the gospel and to do what I know is right. I just happened to find a young man that is the same way. Believe me I have a had my fair share of trials, more like each and everyday, but my fiance taught me something last month that will always stick with me.. HAPPINESS IS A CHOICE, it's an action that we must show or try to do. So as I have gone through these past stressful months I truly try to keep that in mind, even though it it's so hard. I feel that if girls/women could see the reality of the world instead of a fantasy life would be some what easier. I will remember going to see the movie, The Vow, with my mom and sister and when we came out my sister said that she didn't like it, however my mom and I loved it! We saw the reality of life through the movie. It is not like most love stories because it didn't make it typical or into this love fantasy.. It was a real story of how the world works, its hard to make hard decisions.. However we make hard decisions everyday! I feel that youth and a lot of women forget that we chose to come to earth to make hard decisions that sometimes we don't like. Also compromise is huge, I can say from experience that it is hard to compromise, however with Robbie we have worked on a lot of this. I guess I always have to think of the talk Dieter F. Uchtdorf gave in 2010 at a Young Women's broadcast http://www.lds.org/general-conference/2010/04/your-happily-ever-after?lang=eng&query=happily+ever+after I remember how I had a fantasy in my head how life should be, but when he spoke about having my own happily ever after! And wow I have worked really hard for this moment in my life to get married in the temple! I want people to know that life is hard! But we can have our happily ever after! Shnel
