THIS...

...is a good song.

Legacy.

"Not all of us work wondrous works,  but all of us leave works of art. Some brittle, Some intense to those whose infant clothes still lie in a waiting drawer. Leave wonder or leave scorn. Leave joy or prickly thorns. Yes all of us leave memories to those who come hereafter..."- Author Unknown.

Have you ever thought about that? No for real. Like everyone in the world leaves their own finger prints in someway on the world. If it's big or small or positive negative, I believe that our actions right now at this moment effect people who come after us. How cool is that? So let's not waste time...make a legacy. Love each other like Christ would, don't worry about the little, don't try to plan memories because they come with the little pleasures of life, and bi-gosh SMILE! What legacy are you leaving? How do you want the world to remember you?

Just A Closer Walk...

I am weak but thou art strong. Jesus, keep me from all wrong. I'll be satisfied as long as I walk, let me walk, close to Thee.

Through this world of toils and snares. If I falter, Lord, who cares? Who with me my burden shares? None but Thee, Dear Lord, none but Thee.

Just a closer walk with Thee, grant it, Jesus, is my plea. Daily walking close to Thee, let it be, dear Lord, let it be. 

Happy Weekend, Everyone!

Thank goodness it's the weekend! This weekend I am taking the ACT tomorrow for the first time (bleck)...after that me and Lauren are going to paint faces at Tupelo's annual Up, Up, and Away Festival which offers hot air balloon rides, games, face painting (obviously), food, and fun. The forecast for Sunday is 89 degrees and clear skies! WOOT!

What are YOUR weekend plans? 

#WeBackStrat

Hello everyone. So my small town Tupelo has been quite the hype this past week. Our school superintendent, Randy Shaver, wanted to replace our high school principal, Lee Stratton. Many people in the community didn't like this at all. I do have to say that I'm very proud of our little town for standing up for what they believe in. This past week, protests have taken place throughout the town, signs have been hung claiming "Shave off Shaver", t-shirts have been made to support Principal Stratton, and twitter has been filled with tweets with hash tags that say "#webackstrat" (hence the title of this post)...Tuesday night was a big deal in Tupelo. There was a city council meeting in which 3 parents in the community voiced their opinions on the school system's problems. Before that, there was a prayer rally where a group met and prayed about everything that was to be said in the meeting and marched to city hall. Tuesday is the same day in which Mr. Shaver stepped down from his position as superintendent. Tupelo has a long way to go before everything is solved but it's cool to experience everything going on.
