Optimism

I feel like everyone around me is so negative, however, this week I have been very positive. I have a fun filled weekend ahead of me and I can't wait! My week has been pretty good so far and I have just been in a great mood! Last night Bradie and I went to the boys basketball game at IWU and I got to see Steph! It was wonderful! I also got to see Ben, Kerri and some of their other friends!

My schedule this semester is wonderful! For the first time since my first semester at HU, I am not taking 17 credit hours...PLT!! The reason for my post today is that I just want to remind everyone to count your blessings! When you get stressed out with school, just think about the people in Haiti and what they're going through right now. It important for me to keep things in perspective because when I think about the entire world, my life doesn't seem as bad as I sometimes make it seem.




Philippians 2:1-4 If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also the interests of others.
