Thanksgiving 2011

Well... the power went out fifteen minutes before dinner was served. Good thing we could actually eat because the food was finished! It's interesting to be 18 and around 21 year old's with all their "grown-up" ways of celebrating. But i had fun regardless of the circumstances!!!

Living Simply

I watched a youtube video and my favorite line out of it was "Live simply, so others can simply live." What more can people ask for? This life is for us to do our best but not for ourselves. For other people. Live your best in the service of others whether they are a stranger, a best friend, or a family member.

It's The Times...

It's the times when you aren't paying attention that matter most. Those times are when you are talking to a friend and realize how blessed you truly are. It's when you are talking to a roommate and realize how much your mom taught you through chores even when it ment work. It's the times you think back on life and are truly humbled and remember God. It's the times when you look around you and just feel happy for no apparent reason. It's the times when you read a friend's facebook status and smile with gratitude. It's every little second of every small minute of every normal hour of every average day that makes you think about the things that matter.
