One Month

I have now been dating Celeste for one month as of yesterday. It has been a good month. I have been more cultured. I have gone to plays and musicals and such. I have gone to a fancy restaurant. It has just been fun. I  have been a bit frivolous on my spending, but I not bankrupt yet. Maybe I should be a bit more frugal. Anyway I am just happy. Which is nice.

Called Out

I have a big mouth. I am often say things out loud without thinking. A good example of this is two Sundays ago there was a pretty tall girl in front of me that had a peacock thing in her hair. At one point said "I can't see there is a peacock in front of me." Celeste wasn't too pleased. I then tried to cover myself... but I just gave up. It isn't worth it to try to redeem myself.

Today for the devotional the BYU Men's Chorus sang. I have never liked them. I have friends in the chorus. They sing great. The only thing I don't like is that they wear crested jackets. I don't even know why I don't like crested jackets, I just never have. When the started signing I told my friends that I hated them, for no good reason, but I did. The guy in front of me said "Can you keep your opinions to yourself I used to be in men's chorus." I felt pretty stupid. Celeste rolled her eyes at me. Luckily I am not a big jerk that gets offended for being offensive. I took the rest of their singing to try and appreciate them rather than hating for no reason.  The crests were kind of cool to see in rows of the singers, except when a short guy was behind a tall one, or a row was askew.

After the singing the guy apologized for calling me out. I just said thank you for doing it. I am thankful he did. More people should call me out for being rude when I am.

Happy for no reason day

Today I was happy for no reason. I was just happy. I was tired, but that didn't matter. I laughed a lot. I gave big hugs. I spent time with good people and I just generally enjoyed today. There was nothing special to start me being happy, but I was and I loved it.

I hope everyone else can have a random happy for no reason day!

Everyday Miracles

Today I read 1 Nephi 17. Reading in Spanish again has gotten me to pay more attention, or at least think about the scriptures because I have to focus. In the chapter Nephi's bow breaks and they can't get meat. This is hard, but later in the story we are told that the entire journey, including this part with the broken bow, the Lord had made their raw meat sweet so they didn't have to cook it. Everyone murmurered about not having food. The sad part is they had had an amazing miracle in front of them every day. Instead of remembering that the food they had been eating every day was a miracle, they instead focused on not having it. It just makes me wonder what small miracles are in my life everyday. I have miracles and it makes me sad that I don't thank the Lord for the small things more often. Instead we focus on little problem, when we have amazing miracles placed in front of us all the time.

Small things I am thankful for today: A phone. Legs that work. Friends. New shoes that are warm even in the winter. My family. Farsi

Heavenly Father Loves Me

Today I was having a little bit of a bad day. This song came to my mind, especially the last verse. I love how much my Heavenly Father goes out of his way to show me in little ways that he loves me.

Firedrill


I don't know if you can read the picture, but the other day I was chatting with Dell, and the guy had to leave because of a fire drill. After a few hours he emailed me and found out if I still had a problem. I just thought it was funny.
