THOUGHTS

Life is interesting isn't it?
So many experiences. good and bad. It is so easy to get discouraged. These past couple weeks have been really interesting for me. I came back to school after Thanksgiving break, with a happy, positive attitude. Then some things came up, school. friends. not friends. I got very discouraged, ready to throw it all away and move home. I thought for sure that that is what I needed to do. I fasted and prayed more than I ever have. I cried. I talked to my parents. Talked to my roommate.

Why would I just give up? My dad gave me some advice..."Dont let someone else ruin your dreams". Thanks Dad.

I am where I am for a reason.

When life comes at you, remember that God knows that you can handle it and you are strong enough to over come anything that comes your way. I am so grateful to have the people I have in my life. Elyse(my roommate) is a great girl. We talk about everything at night when we lay down to go to bed. We talk about the gospel and how much it means to both of us. I am just so glad to live with her and be able to talk about things like that with her. I have the greatest parents. Always have good advice and are both so strong in the gospel. I'm so lucky to have the family I do.

So...thanks. To everyone in my life. For all your examples.
