"...This life is made up of little things-little things that count a great deal. I believe that the little things are of great importance in our relationship with ourselves, in our relationship with others, and in our relationship with God." - Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin

- I'm just your typical girl who loves to lay around in sweats, a messy bun and spend quality time with those she loves. I've learned that it's the little things in life that makes it so beautiful. Even when life gets hard, little things like a smile or a simple "I love you" can make all the difference. I truly believe in this. Never think that your life doesn't matter - it does. It matters for eternity. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. And I am a Christian.

My Weakness.
I like to think I can plan out my entire life according to how I want it to be. I want to go to this school and date these guys and marry this guy and get married at this age and have my first kid when I'm this old and have my first house here, etc. What I've come to realize is that I can't plan my life. Bummer? No, more like a thank goodness! Life is based on the amount of time we have. We never know when our last "I love you" will be to our loved ones or the last time we'll see an old friend. My time here on earth could possibly end today, who knows! What I do know is that we need to use our time wisely when we are here on earth. Because we don't know when it will be our time to return back to the presence of our Heavenly Father, we need to always make sure we are doing our best. Right now, I'm in the process of making a very huge, important, exciting, scary, personal decision and I feel like in a matter of a month I will be put on a time limit. I need to have faith in the Lord's timing for me and when He wants me to do the things I want to do. If I have to wait a long time before I leave, I wait. If I have a short amount of time to wait til I leave, then I panic and wait ;) There has been so many moments in my life where all of a sudden something random pops up and I need to have faith and go with whatever it is. It's almost always something I don't expect to happen to later realize it was all on the Lord's timing. Things happen for a reason, never as a coincidence.
