Happiness!!! :)

"Sometimes you think that when you've done such a terrible job at something then someone recognizes you did a great job just makes you want to strive to always do a great job!" (Yes, that is my status update) I made this up myself, who'd have thought I still had my poetic bug in my system from high school??

This all stemmed from me giving a talk a few weeks ago. I was super nervous because it had been over 2 years since I've given a talk, and wasn't very confident in my speech giving. The day came and I was more and more nervous as time went on. I sat up on the stand and noticed how many people were there and about peed my pants and wanted to walk out. I had the opportunity to speak with two return missionaries, that just made me think that I was so much more under qualified to give that talk. Alex was speaking first and his talk was mostly a blurr because I was so worried about how my talk was going to be. Finally it was my time to get up and talk about FAITH! It went well and people complimented me alot! I was surprised!

Yesterday I came home and had a letter for me on the table and it was from an amazing woman who I had no idea I even existed, she complimented me on my talk and it just made me feel very good about myself. She will never know how much that small card impacted me and those kind words have impacted me especially in this hard week that I've had. Now I want to send her a card back thanking her for thanking me for my talk! :)

People are amazing! :) At least this person!
