Bad day.

I am not one to complain about life because I have been blessed beyond reason. But today I have let my personal problems and my stressful school situation get to me. I remembered this quote and it has been a great encouragement for today and I figured I would share it with anyone who reads this. 

Gig'em and God bless,
                              Allie B. 

"God grant me the serenity, to accept the things I cannot change; 
courage to change the things I can; 
and the wisdom to know the difference. 
Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time; 
Accepting hardship as the pathway to peace. 
Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; 
Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His will; 
That I may be reasonably happy in this life, 
And supremely happy with Him forever in the next"
- Reinhold Niebuhr

I'm not going to lie, I didn't have the best day either. Hope things get better, but it does help to read that. Just know that Alec and I love you very much and we would do anything for you!
