SEARCHING FOR THE LIGHT

In this day and age it seems like we are always so busy in our lives that we forget to look up.
Sometimes we forget to always keep the light shining within us, the one source of light that is without end.
The light I am speaking of is that eternal light that was from the creation,  that light that is found in the sun, moon, stars and trees and flowers.  The same light that we have within each of us.
IT IS THE LIGHT OF CHRIST!
I invite you all to take time at night to look at the moon and stars, to ponder on their source of light. It's an amazing feeling. 
Think what the world and each of us would be like if we didn't have that light.
On the positive side........ we each have the chance each day to let our light so shine and make a positive change in the world.

RED,WHITE AND BLUE



     What a beautiful and breathtaking display it was on JULY 4TH, 2013!  My husband and I found an amazing park to head up to where you can see the whole Utah County Valley.  As the beautiful sun set over the western mountains the night sky lighted up!!!!!


     What a colorful display of fireworks.  One right after the other one and not to mention the delayed booms that followed. I loved hearing the cheers from the young and old.  The smiles that shown on all their faces.  I wondered what it would have been like to be in space or flying on a plane and seeing how WE, the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, CELEBRATE, the great birth of our FREE NATION in each of our hearts.

     My husband and I couldn't help ourselves, we started singing and humming to so many of our favorite patriotic songs.  No we didn't get up and sing in public ha ha.  But with tear filled eyes and a heart that was ready to burst with LOVE and GRATITUDE to our forefathers who made all this possible with the very God of our great nation by their sides.  I thought about all the men and women who so boldly continue to protect each and everyone of our freedoms and uphold what those past have worked so hard to create.

     It is my prayer that WE NEVER FORGET, WHAT THE RED, WHITE AND BLUE FLAG MEANS.......  That WE ALL CHOOSE TO NEVER FORGET THE GOD WHO MADE THIS GREAT NATION AND THE FOUNDING FATHERS AND THOSE WHO VALIANTLY STRIVE EACH DAY, EVEN WILLING IF NECESSARY TO GIVE THEIR OWN LIVES TO KEEP US FREE AND UNITED AS "ONE".

     On the positive side of life I'M PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN!!!!!

BORN TO SUCCEED!!!!!!!!




     I am sure you have all heard the story of the UGLY DUCKLING right?  What great lessons we can learn from this story about succeeding in life. I mean here is this poor little duckling newly hatched and already it is told just how ugly and different it is.  How it doesn't fit in and never will.  How it is shuned and left alone.  Does any of this ring a bell in our own lives at times?  How many times do we feel like a failure an outcast.  Sometimes as little children we don't even realize that we are different until someone points it out to us that they think we are.
     I hope with all my heart that WE ALL skip to the END of the UGLY DUCKLING story where he finds out that ALL the things he ever THOUGHT or were TOLD to him WEREN'T TRUE!!!!!!!!  That he did matter and even found out how AMAZING AND TOP NOTCH HE REALLY WAS.  HE WAS A SWAN, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND GRACEFUL OF THEM ALL.......
     When we look at others, let us ALL look at them as if they have something wonderful about them to succeed in life......
     I mean just think, WHAT IF??????, ON THE POSITIVE SIDE!!!!!

I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT WHEN IT CAME TO THE END OF DECEMBER THAT INSTEAD OF THE WORLD ENDING IT WAS TIME TO THINK ABOUT STARTING A NEW BEGINNING WITH THE NEW YEAR?




     I first want to say how much I appreciate all those you take the time to read each and everyone of my posts.  What a wonderful year this has been.  Yes full of ups and downs as life teaches us lol.  But the cool thing is that it doesn't matter there is always something POSITIVE that ends up happening.  To actually think that the world would end in December sounded so crazy to me.  I guess for some it was a true test of faith.  As a member of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints.  I am grateful that we have a living Prophet that leads and guides our church.  What a LIGHT he is in a time where some really believed that the world was going to end. 

     I LOVE this time of year.  In fact my son told us on Monday night that one of his all time favorite Christmas songs is by 98 Degrees, Called IF EVERYDAY COULD BE CHRISTMAS.  I love this song to.  Boy how I really do wish that EVERYDAY COULD BE CHRISTMAS.  Can you imagine what impact that would have on everyone.  I can and I would love it.

     Is it possible to start this January off thinking like that?  What an amazing beginning to a New Year that would make.  Perhaps we would really come to know the true meaning of Christmas, I mean you can't buy presents everyday so you would actually have to think of other clever ways to celebrate the magic of Christmas in your lives.

     Well whatever you chose to do to begin this New Year off to a great start, be sure and make it a great goal....... And ON THE POSITIVE SIDE..... you might just want to add a little attitude of CHRISTMAS in your everyday life.
                              MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!!!!!!
