So today I happened to see two guys walking to campus, and they were both wearing white shorts... I don't know about you, but I kind of think that that is rather feminine. White shorts are a pretty stupid color to have in the first place, but if guys wear them I have to think that they are little, shall I say special? Even worse these two guys were obviously roommates, and they were talking about meeting up after class to go home for lunch. Is that a little to "together" for most guys?

So today in my Psychology class we talked about a small part of your brain that helps you to store memory. This section of the brain can become unresponsive, and you can lose the ability to remember something from a few moments ago. You can't remember what you might have done 5 minutes ago, and you will go through a kind of fresh start every minute or two. Thinking about this possibility makes me want to always say what I mean and never take anyone or thing for granted. Our brains are so complex and it's pretty miraculous how they send and receive signals and impulses; we take this for granted already, because we don't realize what we have until we loose it!

How do I know that you will come back?

This question keeps running through my mind

as you slowly drift away

Will this hug be the very last that you give me

before our lives separate

Am I strong enough to say good bye

when you need me to be

You can't guarantee the things I need to hear,

and that leaves me with the simple understanding that

we love each but will have to wait and see

Will it be to late when you come back, have we missed our chance...

only time will tell.

When you can honestly say that you would put your life in danger for someone else's, then you know that it's true love; not lust, and not a passing fling. This kind of love is so surprising and yet it feels so right! When you want to put your life on the line for someone you love, and when you know that they would do the say for you, nothing can keep you from having a solid relationship filled with the purest love and trust.

"I may be weak, but I'm never defeated and I'll keep believing in that sweet silver lining."

This quote from Kate Voegele's song is such an inspiring thought. Though I'm weak and not always strong, there are always silver linings to look toward and remember just how wonderful life is. Thanks, Neeley, for introducing me to this uplifting song!!!

I love living in Utah!! For some reason, it is a lot greener here than in Montana right now, and the amazing green foliage is just beautiful. I can't help but want to take a walk everyday when I come home from work. Just wandering around helps me to appreciate the glorious nature and it also helps me to see tiny miracles from God. How truly remarkable is the color green and the sudden surprise of colorful blossoms that leap out at you and suddenly brighten up your day!

Life always throws surprises at you, and sometimes I can only smile and think to myself oh my! Things never turn out how you suspect and I guess life is meant to keep me on my toes. : ) It's those little things that always jump out and make life interesting!!!
