I just returned from a fireside where Richard Paul Evans spoke. He is the author of a lot of books including The Christmas Box and Grace among many others. He gave 5 things that every person should know...
1. Know who you are
2. Forgive Others
3. Do it--go after what you want--if you fail, fail big
4. Appreciate Adversity
5. Choose to Love
Okay so I'm normally not the person to say this but this talk was EXACTLY what I needed to hear. I have been so confused lately about my future and why things aren't working out and what I've done to deserve all of this and such. He helped me, along with the Spirit, to realize that no matter what I have to go forward and do what the Lord has planned for me. I know it will be scary but I will learn so much if I just do what the Lord wants me to do. I have learned so much throughout my life and will continue to learn so much more from my trials. He said that we aren't who we are despite of our trials but we are who we are because of our trials....simply AMAZING!!!

So Tired......
You know when you are so busy and stressed and then so not busy and stressed and you crash...yeah I'm so there. For some reason I've haven't been sleeping well. I mean I've never been the best sleeper but last semester I slept so well. Now I haven't had a good nights sleep in about five days....and today it hit....hard. I'm sitting in class and I am soooo tired I can't believe it. I keep having these moments where I feel like I'm pulling out of it and then I crash again....definitely no bueno...
