Mile Swim

Oh my holy crap! Never in my mind did I ever think that I could possibly swim a half mile...let alone a mile...36 laps (a lap is down and back)!! I've been stressing a lot about the mile that I was scheduled to swim today. For the half mile I got a little over a half hour(the time limit) so I was really nervous b/c if we went over the time for the mile (which was one hour)then we would get docked 5 points per minute. Ya...made me really nervous. Especially since my shoulder has been acting up and aching pretty bad. I started swimming the mile this morning and by about halfway through I could feel my body start to give out. I honestly started praying right there as I swam that I'd be able to just finish it. Well, I finished it, and my time was 55:37!!!!! I was only about a minute slower than the rest of the boys so that made it even better! So I got full points, as well as knowing that I am in great physical shape! I love swimming:)

Great Weekend!

So this last weekend I came home and was able to spend time with one of my best friends Cassie. We had a blast! No joke. I especially liked hanging with her little brother Colton, but me and Cassie still had fun. Sunday we were crazy so I bought (yes...I know...on Sunday!) some bubble gum so we could take pics. Anyways, here are some of the cute and crazy ones.

Guardian Angel

Since my blog is now private and the only people on here are the ones who I would share this with, I'll share it. This weekend as I was driving home I had the scariest, but most wonderful experience I have ever had! I was on the freeway on cruise control going about 80 mph (don't tell my mom! Haha. Just kidding). As I was passing this semi truck I got this deep sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach that something bad was going to happen! I've never had that feeling so strongly before. Right then my cruise control went crazy. It was like I was going up a hill (where it zooms forward) but I was on completely flat ground. It got up to about 85 miles per hour and then it went back to normal. I hadn't touched the gas pedal at all! Right then I looked back in the rear view mirror and what I thought happened was the semi truck swerved enough into my lane that it would've knocked me off of the side of the road, and where I was going very fast it would've rolled me and possibly killed me. There really are people watching out for us...I know that there was someone was watching out for me. I have an idea of who it is, but I'll never know who saved me last night.

I don't know what went on, but all I do know is that last night was not my time to go...I still have work to do on this earth I guess. It just makes me think about a lot of things...especially about my mission on earth. I don't know what it is, what all I have to do, or anything like that. All I know is that there is more to do.

Footprints

Right now I'm hoping that everything I've ever been taught about trials are true...how we'll never be tested above our ability. I hope it's true, but when it seems like the trial is too big, I always start to wonder. I'll always have faith...but sometimes it's just hard.
