Follow the Leader.

I am sorry I havent written in awhile. The holidays kept me very busy.In this post I will try to cover those few weeks of emotions missed. I had dance practice and Student council events, then Christmas came around and my cousins Elizabeth and Anthony came down to visit for a week. It was a great couple of weeks though, the whole time we laughed and did the most fun activities available in Vegas.For New Years we went to a church dance and saw some movies. It was a great distraction from the struggles of life for all.

Althought the holidays are over now and I must focus on my busy life again, I still feel the spirit and the will to do good. In fact that is my New Year resolution: to be nice to everyone and be a good example of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Its one of those things where if you do one the other comes naturally. Plus a lot of other great things come from following the example of the Savior. This past couple of days especially I have felt the Holy Ghost around me all day. I love the feeling and I know I will be continuing this trend of reading my scriptures and having lengthier prayers at night. (On Sunday the spirit was so strong I had a few tears during my prayer!) I also owe some of this to the people in my life. I have great friends and leaders. The Winward and the Waite familys are great inspiration to me to do my very best and keep in good cheer. The Winwards always display such kind ways towards everyone and I am striving to act in their example. They are a great reminder of how I wish to be. The Waites. This family has been through thick and thin and still continues to amaze me. When I step into the room with one of them the spirit I feel is indescribable. The little peice of heaven each of them carries is what makes my faith grow stronger.

With all these reminders you would think I would have no trouble being kind and worthy. Well its just as hard, but with the help I improve more and more everyday. I am loving life more than ever because of the good people, good spirit, and great love from everyone around me. So, thanks you very much to every person in my life for helping mold me into the person I am today. Happy New Year. (:
