Life's Lessons

Today I am thankful for some of life's lessons.

 

Last night while preparing for my speech for class I realized that I like to live, laugh, love. With this I chose to bring my Bible for LIVE my life in Christ, my camera to capture the LAUGHing moments, and pictures of my friends and family to show that I LOVE with all my heart and more. I also shared a verse that I like a lot with my classmates it is Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." This verse is very important to me and in my life. Which brings me to my next point it seems like Nathan is in my brain at times. He always tells me what I need to hear no matter what, even if I have not said anything to him about it. 

In my latest letter from Nathan he told me to read the poem "Footprints in the Sand" and to remember I am not alone. This was very meaningful with everything that is going on with my friends and family. 

While listening to the speeches in class today I was touched one of the students when she was born her parents were told that she would not live but obviously she did and she is very thankful because of this. There was another girl who contracted meningitis and almost died at 12, she did lose a leg but she is still alive. Another girl who spoke today told of her cousin who she was very close with who passed away at the age of 23. With this being said I think that we should be thankful for the opportunity we have to live our life.
