Week 4: A Life Well Lived

This week was kind of blur and I actually had a hard time with a few assignments or I am still having a had time. But I got to read chapter 7 in The Ministry of Business and it got me truly thinking about who I want to be and become. It also showed to me that I have been unable to look past of who I am now which I am a mother, wife, sister, and daughter. I only plan what needs to happen for others and so I have been unable to accomplish making my own Personal Constitution. As a mother it is sometimes hard to think of ourselves and what we hope to become. One day my children will be gone and I worry what I will do and what will become of me when they are gone.  As I continue on trying to make my own Constitution I hope that I will be able to see myself as more of a person and not just a mom.

My husband has always been the sole provider for our family and we have been blessed in so many ways. When we look back at our finances and realize how much money we had we are surprised at how little it as and how we were able to live with two children. Even though we didn’t make much and paying tithing was sometimes hard because we needed the extra money, but by faithfully serving others this way was truly a blessing to my family. I want to be able to do more one day and to give more and this is something that we talk about as we have been able to not have money be a burden. I love knowing that as a business we are still able to do so much work and I love seeing and hearing stories, like TOMS, Clean Water, etc. 

What I want to remember:
