Would you PASS or FAIL???

The main reason that I am posting the blog is because I had a really scary thing happen to me today. I have been avoiding it for as long as I could...and I finally decided to do it and get it over with. I took my written test today to get my cosmetology license. So it all started last night. I asked Matt to give me a blessing and like any good man would..he did as I asked. Then I made him say family prayers last night..and then again this morning. And...he even made me breakfast in bed to prepare for my testl. So my test was scheduled at 11 but they said I needed to be there by 10:30...so being as paranoid as I am...I left at 9...hoping to get there in time. Well...I ended up getting there an hour early and I saw another girl that was taking the test at 10, so they let me go in with her and take my test. To make a long story short, I totally FREAKED myself out but I ended up passing. I knew immediately that the first thing I needed to do was thank Heavenly Father for helping and then call my parents. Which I did. I was so relieved to pass my test...it was really scary(I HATE taking tests).

So then as I was driving home I was thinking about some things in my life that have been going on and I asked myself...if I died today would I be able to pass and say that I did everything I could to the best of my ability? Or would I fail and try to give excuses to why I couldn't do things. For my test this morning I could have missed 17 questions to pass. Something tells me that there are more than 17 things in my life that I could work on in order to pass the final test.

So now the question is...would you pass or would you fail?
