We can be together forever someday

Dear Reader,

I'm a little behind on my writing it seems. The song for today comes from a video produced by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints about our purpose in life. I thought of it while attending my friend's wedding reception on Thursday evening. She and her husband (Well, they are getting married in a few hours) are very  good together. It was nice to get together and see them and all of their family. :)

One of the best parts about that evening was getting together with my best friends. I have no idea where I would be without them in my life. We are kind of separated across cities at the moment, but that doesn't stop us from having fun along the way in our busy lives. We laugh and talk about our troubles and are generally loving with each other. I love them dearly.

I have to say that I look forward to taking the step that my friend and her husband are taking this morning. They are getting married in the temple by the priesthood authority of God. That is a step I will take eventually, but not yet. It is not in the cards for me very soon, but it will happen. That is one of the best instances in life that we can experience as human beings. I look forward to see my other friends take the same step in their lives.

Am I Proud to Be an American?

This weekend is the 4th of July, or Independence Day in the United States of America. One of my favorite songs during this time of celebrating the country is "God Bless the USA." The words paint a detailed picture of the beauty of the United States, both in a physical and emotional aspect. Our country is often depicted in a majestic manner such as this, making it seem like the greatest in the world and we often hear those bold words, "I'm proud to be an American."  With all of the issues that have been cropping up over the past couple of years such as impeachment, systemic racism, foreign intervention, and most significantly the COVID-19 pandemic, I have reflected deeply about what we celebrate with the 4th of July. These issues are just a few of the many that have made me wonder about the country we praise so proudly.  Am I really proud to be an American?  Thomas Jefferson wrote the candid words of the Declaration of Independence, which were th...

You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breath, shine like gold...

Dear Readers, Ok, so I can't fit the entire title into the title box. It's a good song, go look it up: "You make me smile." The title can apply to anyone, I've found. The rest of the lyrics would probably refer to a best friend or a significant other, but anyone can make you smile. They all have the own way of doing it. Some are just funny all the time and you can't help smiling when you're around that person. I know some who take care of people so well that you just smile when they're doing something for another. Others you can talk to about your problems and no matter what they say, it seems to make sense and you feel better...thus a smile. Ok, a smile doesn't always come in that case, but people usually smile after that. Anyone can have a blonde moment and make everyone smile because of it. I'm glad I've got friends who can do all of these: have blonde moments, take care of others or have an episode of hyperactivity that you can't he...

I've Been Watching You

Dear Reader, Our little boy has not even arrived yet and I am already feeling the pressure to a good example. All growing up, I was always told to never do anything that I wouldn't want my children to know about/do themselves. "Always be on your best behavior, your children will watch you." I will be honest, I have always agreed with that idea and I think it is a good way to live your life. However, I didn't feel the weight of that responsibility until my wife got pregnant. I feel like I am getting more and more pressure from myself to be a perfect example, even though this little boy hasn't even met me yet. That's why I am relating so much with this song right now. I know, this isn't too deep. I just wanted to share the song more than anything.
