I'm not a big fan of Miley Cyrus and I don't really know any of her music, but when I heard the song 'The Climb' on the radio the other day, I knew it from the commercials for her movie. As I listened to the lyrics I recognized that I sometimes tend to live my life wishing away mountains and wanting to just get through the hard times as quickly as possible and get to the good parts. The thing I recognized as I listened to this song is that the good times are during the hard parts as well as the easy times. I really like this song because it's all about enjoying the climb, the journey of going through life. And since I heard this song after Conference, it made me realize even more that I need to stop wishing for things to be different and waiting for things to be perfect to be happy. I need to be thankful everyday for what I have, to enjoy the relationships I have with my friends and family, and just enjoy life as it is. If you haven't heard this song, I recommend listening to it. It's at the bottom of my playlist or you can listen to it here. I'm just grateful for moments in life when I remember what's really important and remember how blessed my life is.
