*Random Thought of the Day:
Recently, Glenn Beck spoke at the Freedom Festival in Utah. He had some very inspiring words about our country and how to deal with the issues. This was some of what he said:"All is well. We will make it. We are this countries next great dispensation of pioneers. It will be hard, it will be rough but oh-we will have this tale to tell. We have to be who we really are. The is found in just waking up......It is the people of this country who are the real strength and good. WE THE PEOPLE! That's the answer!"
Such powerful words. You can tell he was probably talking to a bunch of mormons(: But you know-he might as well because he still represents us as members of our church for this country. I love when he said, "All is Well. We will make it." This country is going to the dogs it seems, but look at those of us as members of the church! We have the Gospel. We have the blessings and promises of tithing when it comes to money issues-we have prayer so that we can pray for those serving and leading our country, as well as those who may be less fortunate-we have scriptures, which lead and guide us in so many ways-we have the Lord always there to be a friend and a father-and above all, we have the truth. The truth that though the world around us is a mess at times, as long as we live righteously, have faith, and trust in God, none of the world around us matters! Eventually the world will come to an end anyway, and if we are living righteously, we will enter into the Celestial Kingdom with our Father in Heaven. We just have to live the best we can for now.*
HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!...Yesterday! I was missing Show Low and all its festivities that I have never missed out on, but I still had a pretty good Holiday. I started the day out by going running. I really need to do that more often. I'm trying to get into a habit, but I'm kinda lazy sometimes! I'll definantly work on it more when I get back to school for sure. Anyway, So after getting ready for the day, I went and hung out with my friend Adam, who I go to school with. He lives in Chandler. We went and saw the movie Hancock.I must say-I really liked it! It was really funny and had a good story. Will Smith can pretty much make anything good! A lot of action in it and PS-Will Smith is SO incredibly good looking! I wouldn't reccomend it for younger kids however because of the language. Too much language I thought. But it was still good and entertaining! After the movie, Adam and I walked around the Chandler Mall and got some ice cream at good ol Coldstone! We had a great time. Then I had to go to work. BUT-Seeing as how it was of course extremely slow, my boss released me at 8:15! So I then joined another good friend, Sterling, and we went and caught the last part of some amazing fireworks! Then Sterling took me to Red Robin for dinner. Good food there btw! Then we just hung out for a while at his house. It was a pretty good day!
In other news, this week has been good! AND FAST! Even better. I'm thrilled that time is going by so fast. I have gotten used to my job and I get along really well with my co-workers. And speaking of jobs, I got my job back at Hollister! I decided that I really needed a little more income, so I will be working there again as well. Probably not as many hours just like before, but it will be a little extra money, and will also give me something to do during some daytimes since I work the resteraunt at nights. I'll start probably next week.
I haven't been doing much else besides work. Last night was the first time that i've really gone out and done something so I really enjoyed myself!
Well, I hope everyone had a great Independence Day! Have a fantastic weekend!
