"The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul. No matter our talents, education, backgrounds or abilities, we each have an inherent wish to create something that did not exist before. Everyone can create. You don’t need money, position, or influence in order to create something of substance or beauty. You might say, I am not the creative type. If that is how you feel, think again. Creation is your opportunity in this life….. Start small. Creativity does not require a brush, a pen, or the keys of a piano. Don’t let the voice of critics paralyze you. You will make the World a better place. Improve, beautify, extend, smile, cultivate, develop, create."
~President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Friends

I just got these pictures otherwise I would have posted this earlier.

About a month ago, I had lunch with some friends. Not just any old friends. Some of my very favorite girls in the entire world.


From left to right: Kami (Isom) Clark {my room-roommate during my freshman year}, Whitney (Doe) I-actually-can't-remember-her-married-name-right-now, me {blah}, Nicole (Redford) Pierce {not a roommate, but should have been also from freshman year}, Amanda Horrocks {another roommate from freshman year}, and Whitney Stewart {my roommate during freshman and sophomore year + one summer and my maid of honor when I got married}.


We decided to all get together for lunch, maybe for one last time, because soon, and very soon for some, we will no longer be close enough that we can get together to hang out, let alone be in the same state. *sigh* Moving on. Such a bitter-sweet thing.

We had fun reminiscing about the old times and updating everyone on what was going on in our lives right now. Amanda is a talented scrapbooker and brought scrapbooks and photo albums from 'the early days'. Pictures can be so hilarious to look back on!

Friends are amazing and I don't think I'd be who I am today without these girls being a part of my life! So, thank you! (to the two of you who look at my blog)
