Big Business HA ha haaa...

"The simple secret is this: put your trust in the Lord, do your best, then leave the rest to him." -Joseph B. Wirthlin, "Come What May, and Love it." Liahona November 2008, 26-28.


So today I went to church as usual. I was a little hesitant just because I miss my buddies and was going to have to be a big girl and go alone today. :) Went to sacrament (even made it on time, this is new). Sat next to a boy (who you all know, but due to personal privacy and internet safety I won't use his name.) who went out of a mission, came home... for whatever reason... and is now going out again! I was so excited. Also one of his good friends, a rather tall hulking figure that is slightly obsessed with Lord of the Rings yada yada... is going to the Honduras mission! Double excited. So Today was turning out to be a good day. Went to my next class only to be interrupted by Bishop Greenwood Calling me into his office...for whatever reason... I sat down with all four of the bishopric in the bishops office and he proceeded to tell me that he "would like to extend the calling of DRUM ROLL..................................................................Relief Society President." You can only imagine the shock on my face. President? PRESIDENT?! A counselor I could handle, but head honcho? That is a BIG calling. However, I thought about it and decided that God wouldn't extend a calling like that to me unless he knows I can handle it. Wow, I was shocked and really overwhelmed but I'm starting to embrace it. haha keyword STARTING. :) Pray for me you guys! I'm going to the temple sometime this week to pray about counselors, I am going to need all the help I can get. Patches: I understand 100% what you were saying about being the Visiting Teaching coordinator and how you just kinda can't breathe and what not haha. I thought I was going to pass out. 


Well that is all. I think we need to have a reunion soon... now that school is ALMOST over :) I miss you all!

There she goes, there she goes again

She laughed when there was no joke. 
 She danced when there was no music.
She had no friends, yet she was the friendliest person in the school.
In her answers in class, she often spoke of sea horses and stars, but she did not know what a football was.
She said there was no television in her house.
She was elusive.  
She was today. 
 She was tomorrow. 
 She was the faintest scent of a cactus flower, the flitting shadow of an elf owl.  
We did not know what to make of her
 In our minds we tried to pin her to a corkboard like a butterfly, but the pin merely went through and away she flew.

*Don't you just want to meet this girl*

Sleep don't visit, so I choke on sun And the days blur into one And the backs of my eyes hum with things I've never done

Alright friends I am going to back away from my classic posts that usually involves music and put them on hold, even though its my love, and just let you know,


I miss you all!!!   



p.s you should all check you the song Welcome Home by Radical Face, or just listen to them all!

The rain

Sunshine hides away from the world,
as the clouds cover up the light.
The sky is filled with dark clouds, 
and the gloomy day begins.

Animals take cover away from the world,
neighborhoods lay still as children hide away in homes.
The sound of laughter and double dutch songs leave the air.
The world lays in silence awaiting the storm.

The smell of rain fills the air
as the rain falls to the ground, 
covering the world in a flood of wet streets.
Leaving a trail of the rains journey on every window.

I sit on the porch watching the rain fall,
enjoying the peace it brings to the world.
Flashes of lightning fill the air,
turning the sky to day before darkness surrounds me again.
The crack of thunder awakes the world for a moment bringing fear.
I sit her in silence enjoying Gods creation.

The song of a bird lets me know the storm is over.
Children run from houses ready to explore the new world.
The sound of laughter fills the air again, 
as children jump from puddle to puddle.
The trees glisten in the sun as it comes out of hiding.

The storm brings along a rainbow
filling the sky with its beauty
letting me know there will always be peace at the end of a storm,
always a new day, 
always a rainbow.
Ending one of my favorite things
with Gods most beautiful creation!
