Here is a blog where I write what I want - kind of like a journal of my thoughts. I will be putting it on private soon, so if you want in let me know.

I used to think I didn't have anyone that read my blog, but the same people that I know of that comment. After saying I was going to write a book and maybe go private, More than ever did I get responses, most were supportive, not all, but most. So Don't be afraid to comment once in a while, it's nice to know who is reading this thing.

I found a show on netflix that I really like. It's called "Psych". It has a catchy tune that I sing along with. Remember the good ole' days when you would sing the opening song of a tv show? For instance, "The Brady Bunch," "Full House," and "Fresh prince" just to name a few? Well now for me it's this. I love the sense of humor in it. Right up my alley. What shows are you into lately?

I really enjoy Beth Moore. She is someone who is open about her life and makes a difference in the life of others. She is not afraid to be open. She is a beacon of light. I look up to her. I try to be open as much as I can only to be shut down. So with that being said, if you are close to me- you know my life. If you are reading this blog then hopefully you will find upliftment. I loved President Monson's talk on Gratitude. It is true, with Gratitude in your heart- you are happy. Today I am grateful for people that really care about you.

Grace like Rain...

Today I loved President Thomas S. Monson's talk on gratitude. I feel like the more I show mine, the happier I am. This summer while it was a hard one, I felt alive within. This fall, I feel like I have been so preoccupied with school, I miss the opportunities to enjoy my little ones. My gratitude today is on the simple things in life, like rain. I enjoy the clouds so much, I feel close to my Father in Heaven when I see them, and with it comes the rain.. This song has come to my mind with it.




Listen to the lyrics. "Grace like rain falls down on me. All my stains are washed away" Amazing. I love the lyrics to "Amazing Grace" but with these words, they paint a picture in your mind of God's grace for all of us.

Stick it to you

Last night at a class, we did something that had amazing effect on the people. Each person took a turn sitting at the front of the classroom. Everyone had to write what their first impression or compliment to them on a sticky address label. When you were done writing it out, you had to go put it on them and whisper in their ear what you wrote. Everyone went when they were done, so as the person sitting there all you can do is here a ton of whispering of good things in y our ear. It wasn't one person come up at a time, it was whenever you were ready. It felt like little angels whispering the good in your ear. It was amazing. Even more amazing for me, was to tell others some good encouragement. Be careful, if you do this you will see even men break down and your hearts will go out to see the outer shell of a person crumble to become their true self. It was so neat to go put up a compliment on someone, even strangers, and whisper to them that they are a great person, not just a compliment, but what you truly feel for this person or your first good impression of them. It's raw because it's honesty. This would be a neat activity for a church group, or any group that you are wanting to have an open, loving relationship that breaks the ice. Something so little, brought so many together.
