Life in Salt Lake

Time to update. I have to say that life is pretty good in these parts of Salt Lake. I love my job. It is the exact change that I needed. I still get to teach (which I love), but there are new challenges (which don't allow me to get bored). My students are a handful, but they are 7, what can I expect. My partner teacher is still great!

So, what else...I workout a lot. I wish I were outside, but I have become a gym rat. I am there almost every day. I meet with a trainer ever 2 weeks and get new workouts. Surprisingly I really like it. I like having someone make a work out for me an then doing it. I think I am even getting stronger. I might have found an additional job. I applied for a job at the Mayan...I will be diving. Crazy right!? I am clearly not the most sane person, but I miss diving and it will give me a little extra cash. To be completely honest, I am totally excited. I tried out the other day and crashed more times than I can count (and I have bruises to prove it), but I smiled through the whole thing. I am crazy! So, life is full of surprises and not too shabby!

Why Me?

Do you ever ask yourself why me? I know there are tons of talks and scriptures that suggest you don't ask that question and just deal with life, but it's hard. Sometimes I think it is more than I can handle, so I ask why me. I am not a perfect person (by any sense of the word), but I try. I try to be a good person and treat people well. I try to work hard in everything I do. I try to by real, sincere, genuine. I try! So why me? Why must I go through things that I don't understand, and are painful? I realize that I am being vague, but I am just putting it out there. If you have a response...that isn't the same as I always hear, please share.
