New Semester

With the New Semester starting I love the feeling that comes with it. Most people are excited and optimistic. Almost like a feeling of euphoria. People carry around this feeling, and it spreads. It is also fascinating how many people I have met, and how many friendships I have formed in such a short period of time. I am so grateful for that. I am excited to move on from Snow College after this semester, but it was also bitter sweet. Because of what I stated previously. All the people that I wont see in the Summer and onto the Fall 2014 semester. I have also gained a lot of respect for other people. It seems to me that no matter where we at in life there is always someway we can move forward, always learn from everyday, and keep on the road to becoming a better person. I recently downloaded a widget on my phone called scripture a day. Its the nicest things i have done lately. It has helped me to start doing a better job at reading my scriptures. That is one of those things in life where it is easy to stop and hard to start. Maybe just for me. But it is prodigious to me the change the scriptures can make in anyone's life. Also just the Gospel in a general sense. Changes lives! 

This might be a little off topic, but here are three books that WILL change your life, at least they have changed mine. The Book of Mormon, The Miracle of Forgiveness, and Jesus the Christ. I wish i had as much time as i did on my mission to read, but as I declared earlier I am trying to do a better job, of at least reading my scriptures.
