Why I'm single

So I was sitting with my cousin, and I randomly started doing something weird, that got me thinking how many of these other weird things are the reason while i'm single? I'll start a list.
1. I randomly will raise my hands and say "what what" I'm clearly in junior high still
2. I will talk in accent that no one knows where it's from. it's fine.
3. I get distracted with in mintues.
4. I have over five random laughs.
5. I laugh at my own jokes
6. I think i'm funny even when I don't say a joke
7. I get an idea and before thinking it through just do it.
8. I will talk in my own version of chinese.
9. I'm to sarcastic for my own good.
I'm sure there's more but that's all I will share for now:) Then it got me thinking at least i'm not a prisoner or something right? These quirks could be looked as charming? haha who knows! oh well! haha till next time!

I feel my saviors love!

Hey there! so I haven't been  good at this blog thing but I have some free time tonight so why not:)  So lately I have been kind of in a rut and not really feeling the saviors love and that is because I withdrew myself.. but after a while I realized that it was my fault for not going to the lord for everything. So after I had a hard few weeks I decided I needed my father in heaven, to help me from what I've been going through and to forgive me. I won't give you the details of what has been going on, but I can honestly say it was one of the most trying few weeks of my life still kind of is. But I have been praying literally everyday a million times a day! I pray right when I wake up and whenever I start feeling down or anxious I pray and then of course at night. I love that hymn "I need thee every hour" it's so true. I really needed to reset my priorities and put the gospel first, I'm always more happy when I do. So I was reading Alma chapter 36. Amazing. go read it! It was kind of how I was feeling in verse 3 it says " I do know that whosoever shall put their trust in god shall be supported in their trials and their troubles, and their afflictions, and shall be lifted up at the last day" I love that! it just shows that you really need to put trust in god. I do think that we all kind of loose that focus. I know that god does hear every prayer even though we might not get the answer we want, we should only want what his will is anyway. He really does know what's best for us. I think that is one of the main reasons that we go through certain trials is so we can remember who we need to put first. God's peace is the only peace I want. You can't be happy all the way happy without our saviors love. now on to verse 12: " But I was racked with eternal torment for my soul was harrowed up to the greatest degree and racked with all of my sins. 13:" Yea, I did remember all my sins and iniquities, for which I was tormented with the pains of hell, yea I saw that I had rebelled against my god and that I had not kept his holy commandments. It goes on to say that he was racked with torment while he was harrowed up by the memory of his many sins, then he cried within his heart " O Jesus thou son of god, have mercy on me who am in the gall of bitterness, and when he thought this he could remember his pains no more. He also says that there could be nothing so exquisite and so bitter as his pains yet on the other hand there can be nothing so exquisite and sweet as my joy. Have we all felt like this at one time or another? I know I have. I have always been taught to turn to Christ and give him our burdens, but I never really tried that, I'm trying that. I know that I will never get anything that I cannot handle, sometimes it may seem that way but god knows what and who you are capable of becoming. Elder Holland said " when life is hard remember we are not the first to ask if there is another way" I cringe when I think of what the savior went through for me. My testimony has gotten deeper of the atonement. I know that Christ feels EVERYTHING we are going through whether it be: getting over sins, physical problems, mental problems, a broken heart. He feels it and is the only one who can succor us completely. I am so grateful for this gospel. To me gospel means change. We can change anytime it is never to late for us to come unto Christ and let him heal us and forgive us. If your feeling forgotten go read the talk from the relief society broadcast in 2012 " the lord has not forgotten you" by Linda reeves, it really put a whole new perspective for me. anyway that's my thought for the day:) As for a catch up on my life nothing to exciting to report! thanks for reading!
