what i have learned recently

soo on sunday there was a REALLY good testimony that was given, although Amanda's testimony was great it wasn't her's, it was a guy who just shared how he started reading the book of mormon again, and how it has made a difference in his life... and then the thought kept popping into my head, i have never read it, but why??? what was my reason for not reading it? so i am going to read it within a 5-6 week period... i am going to try and finish it by september 5th, i only started yesterday, but it has helped me a lot, and its something i want to know is right, its something i have wanted to do... and now that volleyball is done with for a lil over a month, i wanna take the down time and enthrall myself in something else, something to keep my mind busy, i am VERY happy with where my life is going and i know that if i live my life right, then god will fulfill his promises and keep his end of the bargain! i know that everyday brings bew challenges, but i can face those temptations with the spirit, and that when i feel like i am down, or i feel bad that those feelings are how satan wants me to feel because the lord does not want us to feel sorrow, or anguish.... i love my life, although i may not think vegas is the best place, i can deal with two months of extreme heat, and i have soo much to be thankful for, a roof over my head, and shoes under my feet, forever loving eyes staring back at me... its gonna be alright, alright, alright..... :D
