TOMORROW NIGHT---My twin sister and I along with our best friends will meet up at our friend's house for an unforgettable evening filled with happiness!!! We are going to head off from there to have dinner at ZUPAS which if you ask me never disappoints for a scrumptious meal and then attending our favorite singer/performer David Archuleta's outdoor concert. Instead of me going into details about this, you might as well wait patiently for another blog post to show up!! :) 

Virtual Webinar (Mini Story)

One of the many things I liked about this event yesterday was getting to feel inspired by the stories that people I did know and did not share with the group. It was such an eye opening moment for me to hear about the experiences people are having due to the waiting list and needing to get qualifications for the services they need to be independent in our society. I am truly hoping stuff in our state will change over time and more stories can be shared-(things can begin to turn themselves around immediately.) This is going to take at least five years in the making to see this waiting list disappear and yet even if I do not know as much about it as I'd like to... it will come to an end. 

Letter To Myself (Unofficial Story)

By the time I've read through this, my time with the most amazing youth leadership committee will have to come to a bittersweet end. You are not necessarily going to stop those tears of happiness and gratitude from rolling down your cheeks as you prepare for the next stage in life. Three and a half years ago--- I'm sure you didn't realize just how much of an imprint this group of people would leave you on your heart. I know it is going to be an emotional time for you to look in to the faces of your friends and colleagues who have motivated, inspired, encouraged, believed in you to do hard things. You will make certain words of gratitude come from your mouth as the committee meeting comes to a end on whatever day that falls itself onto... You will have made a difference in the lives of everyone who had the chance of knowing what an amazingly genuine, unconditionally loving person you are!!! (Please stay tuned for an actual heartfelt post coming to you all at some point next summer.)
