Conscious Decision

I missed yesterday based on a conscious decision. Did I wake up late? No. Did I feel sick? No. Was I lazy? Yes! I got up on time, I had actually slept the entire night, not waking up 2 and 3 times like I normally do (if you consider me normal, that is) and looked at the phone (which is where I keep my "clock" at night) and thought to myself, "I slept the whole night!, I think I am just going to lay here an be lazy." so I did. It was a conscious decision. I got up and rode this morning, stretching myself a bit. Speed level 16 with a top speed of 25.7! which was pushing it but it felt good. I was at a training on carpet all day yesterday and will be today and I will be tested on my knowledge today so I can become carpet certified. Nice to have so I can advise people on their carpets. We had some wonderful visits last night with our entire group leadership there and had a very touching one on Tuesday night with a brother prior to his going in for prostate surgery. He was given a blessing and then he gave his wife a blessing. A very spiritual evening. Life is progressing. Kids are in school and finishing up with classes. My oldest daughter is finishing up her schooling and will walk in June, and my other two 3 daughters are finishing up strong. My youngest son is doing well. My oldest continues to travel and be away from home too much. His family needs him but he has to provide for them as well. It's tough. I hope that I stay strong and endure to the end. The longer I live, the more important that is to me. This life matters only in so much that we live right, make correct decision, repent quickly when we don't, say our prayers and are good to others. Our achieving the Celestial Kingom all boils down to a conscious decision!
