Today I got to have lunch with one of the most amazing women I know, Debbie Mitchell. Yes, THE Debbie Mitchell who does Twisted Silver. I've known her since my junior year of high school when I started to hang out with her oldest son, Topher {{Christopher}}. She has such a pure, strong testimony and I've always admired her advice. There is something incredibly special about that woman! The wisdom she has on life...I envy it! She's truly an amazing woman and member of our church.
Well, I updated her on life but we focused more on a...particular topic :) I just needed her advice! I needed her to tell me what I already knew I was suppose to do! I needed her encouragement!! And that's exactly what I got from her. Nothing less. She told me, "Olivia, you have such a rare spirit...go out and share it to others!". She gave me so much peace on what I'm suppose to be doing with my life right now. She made me very excited about these next few months!
I like to think my life is ironic with all the little things that happen in it but really...it isn't. I am living the best life right now. I have the most amazing people I can call my friends. I live in a beautiful city with an incredible stake. This past weekend, I was reminded how incredible my stake is. The talks that were given in stake conference were so divine and so powerful that I'm so blessed to be surrounded by strong members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They truly have made me the person I am today. I really do consider them as my other family; all of them. Things have happened in my life for a reason. Sister Keyworth {{aka Lara Keyworth}} sent me this quote her mom just sent her because she felt it was something I needed, "God our Father and His son Jesus Christ, with their perfect foreknowledge, already recommended each one of you to fill your mortal probation during te most decisive period in the history of the world." Lara wanted me to know that I am here for a reason and I was born for great things. Again, I am so eternally blessed for the amazing people in my life that do nothing but uplift me.

"...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.
