So its been about a week since I have updated, and just to let you know.... LIFE IS AMAZING !! My new job is going very well, and I have achieved 100% accuracy on all of my calls for the past 2 weeks...cha-ching! Let me share with you some more of the recent awesomeness; girls nights with the roommies, fun times with the fam, learning new songs on the guitar with my BFFs, camping, hiking the "Y", campfires and smores, midnight smoothie run, quote board fun ;) adventure walks around Bridal Veil Falls and Sundance, surprises, and fun dates! So yeah I would have to say that my life is pretty eventful at the moment !
I feel that this summer has not only been filled with rockin fun, but also with new experiences that have helped me learn a lot about myself which is always encouraging and amusing at the same time. Some things I have learned so far; you cannot fear things but take them one step at a time, life is about taking risks and understanding that it is ok to give yourself permission to experience and enjoy something new without a perfect knowledge of where it will end up, "Trust" is a big word but it can be built by the smallest and simplest of things, those who care.....show you, every experience you have is a two way street, the most accurate picture of your life is not only about what is given to you but how you personally choose to interpret it as well, those who respect you respect you enough to help you live what is important to you! And most importantly, God can do anything!!
Wow sorry I didn't expect that to be such a long list, but hey when you live, you learn and I just had to share a small glimpse of the goodness that has come along with that! Well, peace out till next time and remember that with whatever place in time you are at , you can always make it better by being true to who you are! And as I always say ......"Positive thoughts" =)

One thing I learned today is to give people the benefit of the doubt! But it is also important to remember that you can't do that without being true to yourself and what you feel!
Quote of the day: "Because the soul has such deep roots in personal and social life and its values run so contrary to modern concerns, caring for the soul may well turn out to be a radical act, a challenge to accepted norms.”

I love Sundays ! Uplifting words heard in church remind me every week of why I love this gospel so much and about the most important things I need to be thinking about and working on during the rest of my week! I can't imagine not having the things that this gospel provides for us! Sometimes I realize how much I take it for granted and then I am reminded of how many people don't have the knowledge I have grown up with my whole life and it makes me that much more determined to make this gospel the largest part of my life! Today when I went and visited my family, my siblings and I sat around the table and shared our favorite Sunday music with each other and while we listened to it we shared thoughts and experiences from the previous week with each other! Like the amazing words that were shared in church today, this gospel and this life are about the simple things. At times our lives may seem very complicated and frustrating, but really, true joy is found in taking advantage of simplicity and in following Christ's plan for us! Thanks to those who reminded me of that today through the spirit of their testimonies!..... So remember how I said I LOVE sharing quotes, well here is one that I found today that for some reason touched my heart far beyond the others!
Quote of the day: You may not know,
But it is absolutely true:
With each heartbeat
Your heart is calling: ,"God", "God"
You may not hear it,
But God Himself definitely hears
Your heart's cry.

So this whole world of blogging is a new thing for me and so I am going to have fun with this and see how it goes! I am excited to have a special place where I can share all kinds of different things; happy times, sad times, thoughts and ideas, new experiences, and one of my favorite things in the whole world......quotes I have found that bring me joy and help me understand things I am experiencing! I decided to name my blog "One Place In Time" because if there is one thing in my life that I have learned it is that with anything you go through you have to remember that you can only think about one place in your life at a time and that is the here and now. You can't worry about the past because it is behind you and you can't spend your time worrying about the future because you will waste away the beauty of today ! So I guess it's more of a reminder for myself to take life one day and place at a time and breath in each new life experience with the mind set that each step will help me grow to a place and into the person that I want to be! Every day, every experience, every moment is "One Place In Time" !
