Finally Done!

This Semester has been one of the best semesters I have had. I have had great classes that required so much work. I have most importantly made such great friends. I have been so blessed to get to know them and have developed such a wonderful friendship. It has been one of the biggest growing times in my life. Everyday something of growth was pointed out to me. I grew the most spiritually and my way of thinking also changed. I have to thank my roommate Valerie for that. We both had a very growing semester in every way of our life. She helped me to open up to who I really am and what I am really thinking. I have loved my friends because I was able to be who I am and love it. I had a goal this semester to find out who I am and really love myself. I felt I have accomplished that and so much more. I have loved the spirit of the Lord with me this semester! I have felt his presence with me each step. I have not found the true meaning of my life....at this moment. I am just finding myself and what I love and truly believe in!

Walking the Labyrinth

For my Humanities class today we had to walk in a made up Labyrinth created by my teacher and it was wonderful to just meditate inside the paths. As I was in the Labyrinth it was interesting to see how other people worshiped....it was insightful. I have so much going on this week because finals are coming up next week and papers and presentations are on the rise in all my classes. When I was in the circle it made me forget about all the stress that occurs in the outside world. And it made me appreciate the love I have for our churches temple that we have dotted the earth! I know that the temple needs to be a center focus in my life. The provides me with a sense of purpose and love from my Heavenly Father. I love how just the littlest things can help me remember why I am here and what I must to do go back home.
