Quotes I Live By

“There are cycles of good and bad times, ups and downs, periods of joy and sadness, and times of plenty as well as scarcity. When our lives turn in an unanticipated and undesirable direction, sometimes we experience stress and anxiety. One of the challenges of this mortal experience is to not allow the stresses and strains of life to get the better of us—to endure the varied seasons of life while remaining positive, even optimistic. Perhaps when difficulties and challenges strike, we should have these hopeful words of Robert Browning etched in our minds: 'The best is yet to be'"--L. Tom Perry

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It will all work out. If you do your best, it will all work out. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us . . . If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."
--President Gordon B. Hinckley

"God the Eternal Father did not give [the] first great commandment because He needs us to love Him. His power and glory are not diminished should we disregard, deny or even defile His name. His influence and dominion extend through time and space independent of our acceptance, approval or admiration. . . No, God does not need us to love Him. But oh, how we need to love God! . . . For what we love determines what we seek. What we seek determines what we think and do. What we think and do determines who are--and who we will become." --President Uchtdorf

I have had pretty long hair for quite sometime now. And as much as I love having long hair, it was getting hard to take care of, I was getting sick of it taking forever to dry and to wash it, and pretty much, it was making me way to hot! So today i went and got a bunch of inches cut off! I originally wanted it one inch below my shoulders, but apparently the hair dresser doesn't know where my shoulders were, cuz she cut it right to my shoulders..but its okay :) I really like it though! Michael said "Now almost all of my sisters have short hair!!" but he told me he really liked it nonetheless :) I'm wearing it back with hair clips right now just cuz the bangs are a little short and kind of get in the way, but overall, I think it's a pretty good summer hair do :) Definitely something new.
