Oh My Bless

Holy cow! Life is just a happening! In just these last 2 days I have had 2 friends from high school get engaged! I roomed with one in college and spun with the other this last winter season. I know one has a pretty great guy, I have yet to really meet the other friends fiance, but he obviously has to be pretty good or else she wouldn't be engaged to him! Oh! Also, today another friends got married! So much marriage and happiness going on! It's insane!

**WARNING-TOUCHY FEELY COMMENTS COMING ON!**

All three of these ladies are pretty special in my life. Let's start with L.

Oh my bless L, you amazingly wonderful human being!! You and I had our first seasons together! Granted you were a few years older than I was, that still makes no difference! You have always been a wonderful example to me and I will never forget that! I believe that you were sent home from your mission not just because of health reasons, but because Heavenly Father wanted you to marry this man. He is obviously someone special in your life and I am so happy that you were able to find that joy in your life. I'm sad that I missed your wedding tonight, but I know that as you were both married and sealed in the temple, you were sealed for eternity and now you both have the opportunity to create your own worlds together! Your children will be yours forever and most importantly, you have each other for eternity. What more could you want in your life?! To have someone that loves you through thick and thin and wants to create galaxies with you? I think that is pretty special:) L, I am so incredibly happy for you:) and I cannot wait to see what your future holds for each other!

R. Girlfriend, I don't even know where to begin! I don't believe I met you until our sophomore year of high school and boy am I glad that we met! You have always had the Spirit of Christ ablaze in your eyes and you have let that shine through the way you live. I could not be more proud of the person you have become today:) I will never forget when I texted you this last semester about one of my crazy professors and all you had to say was, "just stick to what you believe and Heavenly Father will provide." now, that was paraphrasing, but it was to that effect. Wow, has that stuck with me! I often times worry about what in the world is going on in my life, that I freak out and have a little panic moment, but every time I am now able to remember that if I stick to my faith, Heavenly Father will make sure that I have what I need. Girlfriend, you will move mountains!!

And last, but certainly not least B. There is no doubt that we have had our ups and downs. And I regret to say that most of the downs were from my own stupidity. You were my very first roommate ever in life and I am so grateful for every experience we had together. Because from every experience, I was able to learn very valuable life lessons. A) learn to freaking share. It isn't that big of a deal and not that hard. (I had a hard time with that, and I apologize.) B) They are there for you, so you better be there for them! This is a lesson I am still striving to perfect, but I can say, I am better than I used to be. C) Just because you have a fight, does not mean that they hate you forever. People fight. It's a fact of life. Not everyone can get along. But what is important to remember is to let go of your pride to save a relationship. I cannot thank you enough for helping me to see my own faults and helped me to become a better person. You deserve someone who makes you feel special every day! Love you girly!

Friends, I know that the temple is the house of the Lord. It is prepared for Him and all those who are worthy to dwell within it. I am so excited for all of these beautiful people and cannot wait to see their life adventures with there eternal companions.

Much love,

The Ginger
