Why Are You Smiling?

Let's go back about 3 months, when I went for my fill and had ONLY lost 0.8 lbs. When I walked into the "holding room", my friend asked how I did. I told her, I only lost 0.8 lbs! A man in our group (who I had never met), after hearing me say this says, "Then what are you smiling about? You came in here this morning smiling, and you're still smiling!" I looked at him and said, "What reason do I have not to smile?"

Even if I wasn't on a life changing journey, what reason would I have not to smile? I have people in my life who love and care about me - I have a job I enjoy - I have a growing relationship with my Savior - I'm rich (compared to the rest of the world) - I have a home in heaven. I am blessed beyond measaure! Who wouldn't be smiling?
