Not my will but thine

So... it's been an interesting few weeks. It's funny how when you desire something so bad and lose care for something else the exact opposite happens. That might not make much sense to you, but it's like this. Say you desired an apple before and then slowly that desire just faded away and now you desired a banana. Now you worked really hard to recieve that banana, you put your all into it and it's a good thing, it's definitely not wrong Anyways you find out that the banana is not the thing you're really supposed to have. Actually that you really shouldn't even buy the banana let alone eat it. And an APPLE falls into your lap! But an apple that hard to eat.... it's really confusing this story huh??? Well basically what I'm trying to say is follow the will of the Lord. It is so important that even if you don't understand why and you don't agree with Heavenly Father's suggestion for your life ( because you know, you still have your agency) you should still follow it. Anyways it's just important. Just think, what if Joseph Smith didn't follow the suggestions Heavenly Father had for his life, we wouldn't have this great gospel!!! So I don't think I'm suppose to bring to pass something great because I'm listening to the promptings I'm being given, but hopefully I understand why he said no later. I love the gospel and I don't know if I should be posting this online, but maybe, just maybe somebody needs to hear this too...

I'm out.

Hello World!

Courtney is disappointed in me... I haven't been updating :( But life... well it's been interesting... There is 20 days left until the end of the semester... ( that is including saturdays & sundays) meaning really there is like um... actually 14 school days left as in 14 Monday thru Fridays left... AH! I feel as if I should be stressed out because I have so much homework to do but for some strange reason I have this peace that everything will be okay... It's a nice feeling ( by the way I know I am using the ellipse in the incorrect manor, but most people know that it really symbolizes a pause, a sigh, or just a random ponder when it comes to the text of a blog or journal.) Anyways... It's been a ride these past few weeks, actually pretty much since about mid-mark of the semester. I have been so happy! Even when frusterating things happen, even when sad things, bad things, mad things happen, I've been happy. I know what it is. It is this GOSPEL of Jesus Christ. Those of you that I don't know and are reading, I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter- Day Saints. It is the truth restored on this earth today. It is the church of happiness, the gospel of joy! I don't think I've ever been this strangly happy in my life because I know that My Heavenly Father loves me, as does Jesus Christ. I hope this doesn't sound preachy or "holier than thou" because again those who know me, know that I don't mean it that way. I just feel like my face is toooo small to fit the smile that I want on my face!

I would just like to give a little tribute to the best job ever. I love my BOSS and the other ladies I work with. They really do bring a brightness to my days and the ones that are leaving... I don't know what I'll do without you this summer, but we will meet again! I love you all and I hope you know that!

That's my post of the day! YAY!

My first blog entry!

This is my first blog entry! I am so excited I finally got a blog! SO I decided to get one just like all of my wonderful friends at work but I could never think of a title to put on it, and finally!!! I chose the title " In the words of Orchideh" because these will be my words on what is going on in my life and my name is really Orchideh, although I have everyone call me Orchid. Orchid is just easier to say. Orchideh just looks cool... right? Anyways... This is my first entry. I need to get pictures up on this!
