Dear Readers,
Sometimes in life a person can be most pleasantly surprised by the simple things in life that one would normally not think about. Truth has been spoken many times, "Great things come in small packages." Of course great things can appear in any shape or size, but the small ones are surprising, as mentioned before. Allow me to explain:
Today I have been having a most wonderful day. Several of my friends came over to practice for a Vocal Competition and we sound pretty good. After that was a good basketball game with my brother's friends. The highlight came tonight, at one place where I never expected to be.
One of my friends invited me to her ward party because her mom was out of town and she didn't want to go alone. Being a ward party I thought, "hey, sounds like fun. Let's go!" and off I went. It was out at a recreation center with swimming and some good food. My friend and I enjoyed some good food while discussing this, that and the other. It was first joy of the night. We got in the pool (her a little bit slower than myself) and starting splashing and swimming laps. Then another of my friend's little sisters came over and started playing with us. I just have to say they are two of the sweetest girls anyone will ever meet. They between 7-11 and both have great spirits. At the pool we were in, there is a small loop with a current running through it. We all decided it would be fun to have races around the loop.
Needless to say, these girls made me smile more than I had in a very long time. It is the greatest joy I have had in awhile just to spend half hour with them, having fun without a care in the world. So, if you want some joy in your life, go spend some positive fun time with a couple of loving people. :)
