Everyones life is worth living.

This world has many beautiful wonders. Recently I have opened my eyes and I know see a whole new world. God put us on this earth to learn, grow, enjoy, love, and much more. Open your eyes and see all that God has blessed you with. Once you have opened your eyes help others open their eyes. Enjoy and be grateful for everyday you are given. Everyday is to be lived once, when you go to bed at night be grateful for the day, even if you had a bad day. You were able to breath, to live while others weren't so lucky. Look back at each day and learn from it. You never stop learning. Be grateful for the trials in your life and the things you learn from the trials. Remember you are never alone. You have a Father in Heaven and a brother Jesus Christ who is always there for you. They want to help you, they want you to succed in life, to be happy in life. They want to hear from you. They will be and are your best friends. They listen, help, guide, love, care, and much mroe. They will never laugh or make fun of you. But in order to get those blessings you have to obey them and do all you can to be like them. Live, Laugh, Love, Learn, Grow, Share.


I recently went to Easter Island and man was it amazing!!! It was so beautiful. While I was there I went to the belly button of the world. There is this magnetic force that is so amazing. While I was there I was able to let everything go out of my head. I didn't have to worry about anything. I have recently felt like I don't deserve this life, this life is way to good for me. I haven't done anything to deserve a life like this. There are babies that don't get a chance to live, Children, teenages, adults. people are always dying and I get a life like this. How is that fair?

I have also felt kind of alone. So while I was at this magnetic place I said a prayer, I told my Father in Heaven everything, Everything that I was feeling. I told Him I felt alone, and right then I felt so warm inside. I was not alone anymore. I never am alone.

I also opened my eyes at the magnetic place. I noticed how beautiful everything is in this world. God truely did make a beautiful world. I love looking at the clouds, the sunsets, the flowers, notice how green the grass is, find something good about the desert, I have noticed everything around me. I'm hopeing that throughout the rest of my life I will be able to open other peoples eyes and make them notice all the beautys of this earth. I feel like that is one of my jobs here on earth.

My new saying is... Live, Laugh, Love, Learn, Grow, Share. Do all of those and your life is perfect.

Just thought I would share that with you.

A Whole New World

I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride

A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Now I'm in a whole new world with you

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky

A whole new world
Don't you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things to see
Hold your breath - it gets better
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be

A whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red-letter
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world
That's where we'll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and me

I just listened to this song. And I started thinking, I'm in a "whole new world." So I'm going to share some stuff with you.

First- Life is too short. Take time to enjoy everything you can. I know people say that all the time, but I have found that out. Enjoy everything that God has blessed you with in this life. Lately I have been amazed at how beatuiful the clouds are. I love to look at the clouds. They change so fast, so in way day you can see 100 different cloud shapes. They are so beautiful.

Second- I only have around 2 months left here. I'm pretty sad. Where did my first 8 months go? My exchange is to way to short. I felt like in the first 7-8 months I could have done so much then I did. I know most of you won't be exchange students. But whatever the situation is make the most out of life.

Third- So much as happened. I'm excited to get back and share my experiences with everyone!

Fourth- Tuesday I'm going to Easter Island for 5 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so excited!!!!

You guys are always in my heart. You are all amazing, so loving, caring and wanting the best for me. Thanks for all the support you have given me!
Take Care
