no regrets

yesterday (april 5th, 2011), i had the wonderful opportunity

to audition for BYU Young Ambassadors.

it was such a wonderful experience:

i learned an AWESOME dance.

i learned AWESOME audition songs.

aaand

i made new friends :)

i didn't get a call back though.. 

but i don't regret 

ANYTHING

:)

which made me think of that one time my really good friend ashley told me something i wanted to be more concsious about..

i don't know you just have no inhibitions about going after hard things.

you risk failure in order to succeed. it's a good quality :)

although i did not make a callback i am happy i went after a hard thing

and had fun doing so :) 

compliments.

"You did an amazing job, I am so proud of you and your leadership. I can't wait for you to change this world!!!! You rock my world!" - June Hiatt

my friend wrote this on my wall :) totally made my day! and just so you all know, i really do hope to change the world someday :)

blessings :)

 

you never really know how blessed you are until someone or something puts it into perspective. 

to quote my good friend Elder Eldridge in one of his recent letters from the Philippines, 

"One last thought, Well while living here I have seen so many people struggling daily to earn money for food, to live. They live in dirt huts, eat a hand full of rice a day, and yet so many of them recognize that handful of rice as a blessing, I have been humbled so much and recognized how much I took the everyday blessings of life in America for granted. I did not appreciate running water until I had to shower with a bucket and a little ladle. I did not appreciate my family, my friends, and my religion. I would encourage all of you to count your blessings... the poor conditions these wonderful people live in and I'd challenge you to recognize your blessings and how easy you truly do have it."
