Modesty, Morals, and Rules

I'm so glad that my friends share my standards. I don't know how I would cope if they didn't. Actually, that's sorta easy, they just wouldn't be my friends. ^_^ I hate how some chicks think Halloween is just an excuse to dress like a slut. My friends always dress modestly. And hey, guess what, any guys worth anything don't like it either. They like girls who dress modestly.
I'm grateful that our Savior gave us rules to keep us safe.

Teddy Bears

I wish I had seminary class 4 times a day. It's one class I don't feel like I have to pretend to be someone else. A shadow, or a diva, it doesn't matter, I'm just usually not me.

I grateful God gave someone the idea for stuffed animals. Especially Teddy Bears. Hugging teddy bears is some serious therapy.

Mission

I'm grateful that Brett is going on a mission. He is too good not to go.

missed appointment

I feel aweful. I completely forgot about a bishop's interview I had! I was already to go, and then I just didn't. It's like I zoned out for an hour before and after the time. I don't understand it.

Julianna

I am so thankful for Julianna. She is our belle. Our beautiful, our sweet, our innocent. She as close to the epitome of Christ-like behavior that I think I will Ever know personally. I hope I can be just like her.

Read it and weep

"Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate, but that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that frightens us. We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, handsome, talented and fabulous?" Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God, your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us. It is not just in some; it is in everyone. And, as we let our light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
