Inner Strength

In the long run, you have to learn how to be your own best friend. 

People will fail you. Friends come and go. And we are all busy juggling life. 

There comes a point where even those you thought you could always count on won't be there. 

You have to learn to rely on yourself and be comfortable on your own. 

In the end, you can only rely on Heavenly Father and yourself. 

He will never let you down or abandon you. 

He is always there waiting for us to come to Him. 

Hello World

I am so incredibly behind on this blog of mine its not even funny. They are many things I have wanted to write about but haven't gotten around to doing so. More posts will be coming once I get my thoughts organized. 

Life has a funny way of never going the way we think or hope it will. It can be hard to gauge when to hold on and when to let go. I find myself in the middle of a crossroad. I am done looking behind me wishing for things from days gone by. I am moving on. This life is mine to live and I'm going to enjoy it. Here's to starting new again and dancing my way through life. 

Holy crap, I leave for camp in 3 days!
So much to do in so little time!
I am so excited!!!!!
(No amount of exclamation points can convey how excited I am.)

On another note, my little corner of the PNW got hit with a pretty impressive downpour tonight.
My street was flooded within a couple of minutes. It was a mad dash to the car. 

We may have been soaked, but it was sure fun to watch the rain come down. 

Simple Things

I am eating Tillamook ice cream out of a beautiful bowl I made. The experience is incredibly satisfying. 

Today I studied intensely for my cultural anthropology final, had a wonderful riding lesson, took my final, and picked up my pieces from the art show. Tonight my little sister graduates from high school. It's crazy how fast time flies. I couldn't be more proud of her! 

The Power of Music

I absolutely love music! I am always expanding my library and finding new bands to listen to. I believe music has tremendous power and deeply affects how we feel and view the world. Music can convey thoughts and feelings that words alone cannot adequately express.
