True Story

Summer is over. Finding a new grad nursing position has been far from easy. 
Fortunately I have been keeping busy with doing other things. I just have to have patience and trust in the lord. 

Despite our trials I know that we can have joy. Below are things that have brought me joy these past couple of weeks.

1.       Starbucks: Iced Chai Tea Latte with soymilk ( caffeine-free, of course)
2.       Fresh cut flowers at the Farmer’s market
3.       Talking with old friends
4.       Driving with the windows down while the radio is blasting
5.       Ice cream
6.       Online shopping (well more browsing than actual buying)
7.       Blog-stalking college buddies ( guilty)
8.       Return of fall TV (Vampire Diaries, Gossip Girl, GLEE, just to mention a few)
9.       Pretzel M&Ms 
10.   Reading a good book

My family and I saw Wicked this past week. Absolutely Love it.  The music, cast, costumes, stage were all magical.  My favorite songs were "Defying Gravity"and "For Good" While I was at BYU I never really understood why so many people were OBSESSED with Wicked, now I know why. It's a top notch production with characters everyone can relate to. It's smart, funny, and has a Happy Ending.  Mom, Grandma, and me! I love this quote:  “As we exercise faith in Christ and trust in His promises, we can walk into the dark with the absolute assurance that our pathway will be illuminated—at least far enough to take the next step, and then the next step and the next step.” —Elder David A.

Things have been a little rough lately This semester is going to be tough Graduation is fast approaching Decisions have to be made I don't know what to do I'm not sure what I should do with my life I can do it Things will work out, it'll be ok I will blossom where I'm planted "If a man is called to be a streetsweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven played music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, here lived a great streetsweeper who did his job well."~ MLK, Jr.   Good Timber by Douglas Malloch The tree that never had to fight For sun and sky and air and light, But stood out in the open plain And always got its share of rain, Never became a forest king But lived and died a scrubby thing. The man who never had to toil To gain and farm his patch of soil, Who never had to win his share Of sun and sky and light
