yesterday {11}

{sorry for all the yesterdays}

 i was thinking about it all day, but never got the 

chance to say how grateful i am for my mission. 

I woke up and read my journal, and had a photo of my original district from when

we went bowling, those were some of my closest friends,

then through out the day I was reminded of the people.

I taught a little Mexican girl at dance and got to speak to her in Spanish.

I read a letter from a man we helped get reactivated, and it was too sweet. 

I had a little bit of time to sit and ponder the beauty of the mission and how I can re-apply

all of that beauty back into my life.

I loved my mission so much. 

Even though sometimes it was a living Hell of trials.

I grew so much, learned so much, loved so much. 

More than I ever knew I could. 

So I am grateful I learned I have a capacity to achieve so much more.

today {12} i am grateful for temporal inspiration.

{let me explain}

Always in choreography, I pray for the dancers, and that I can 

choreograph something that will highlight their talents, push them, and be visually pleasing.

It is a lot harder than it sounds.

And I feel that that is being achieved with Small Elite.

I get to work with some very talented dancers, and to see a vision come to

life by such small people

is quite incredible.

So I am grateful that the Lord helped me create something that is definitely pushing the girls,

while still allowing it to be beautiful, simple, and powerful.

Now I just pray I can have to patience and skills to help them fulfill the potential

they have, and that the routine requires.

i am so very blessed.
