Dreams

Everyone has dreams...I can honestly say that I have not always had the same dreams. When I was little, I wanted to be a famous singer. Now, I know that that is not for me. However, I still want to be a role model. I want to make an impact in lots of people's lives.

I was watching Extreme Makeover: Home Edition one time and they built a house for a family who took in children off the street and taught them to box to keep them away from drugs, and gangs, and just bad influences. Well, this is basically what I want to do, except not with boxing. I want to bring children and teenagers off the street and teach them to sing or to dance or to act. Children can't always change their circumstances, but I want to help them change their attitude about life. Some children don't think that they will ever amount to something. I 've been told my whole life I can do whatever I want. I want all kids to feel that way. I want to save a child's life, or a few. I'm pretty excited, because it's something I can do and still be a mommy! Yay!

What are your dreams? What do you want to do when you grow up? Comment, and tell me about it!

Love,
Marci

    Ohhh, Marci that's so beautiful! That would be so great for kids who don't have everything they want like we do. My dream is to really help kids with depression and eating disorders and stuff like that. I also really, really want to help suicidal kids. :)
    Miss you!

    P.S. It's almost been 20 months since I posted on my other blog (the one from 7th grade). :D

10 Things to Do When You're Having A Hard Time

Image
Imagine a world where the sun is always shining, there is no temptation, weakness, or sin. The grass is always green, hair is always shiny, flowers never die, people never misbehave, no illness exists, and the sky is always blue. Imagine also a world where you never felt joy, you never laughed, you never sang or danced in the kitchen. There was no sweet – there was no color, there was no life. There was no righteousness, no growth, no children, no family. Oddly enough, these are the same world. When we chose God’s plan, we knew that this life would be difficult. Our whole purpose in coming to Earth is to be tried and tested. Yet, sometimes when life gets hard, we forget that we CHOSE this. There must needs be an opposition in all things. Proverbs 3:5-6 states: “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all ways acknowledge Him and He will direct thy paths.” 1. Realize and understand your divine nature as a child of God. There is

Ah, Lovely Scarlet Pimpernel

Well, The Scarlet Pimpernel is now over. Sad life. I enjoyed it so much. You know, I don't know what it is about theatre...it doesn't even matter if you have a part or not...theatre is happiness. It brings joy. Joy to all those who participate. Joy to the actors, and joy to the audience. And there's something extra special about a musical. Music is also joy. So, double the joy! :) I feel the same way I did when I quit dance. I feel like I've been separated from my family. I feel like I've moved away from home and from everything that I love. Although this isn't quite true, I do miss my cast family very much. However, I will say...there's something extraordinary about a smaller cast. You really have time to connect and bond with each other. But I really feel like this cast was amazing. I've become so close with all of them. I would just like to spend a few minutes to thank all of those that are really special. (Sorry, I don't have any pictur

A Year and a Half Sacrifice (Or Two Years)

So my sister is coming home today! Today at 5:55 PM, I will see my sister, Katie, face-to-face for the first time in 18 months. A year and a half... She was serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, joining, the thousands of missionaries in the world, and my 4 brothers, and my dad. I was thinking the other day, how crazy it is that I haven't seen her in so long! I'm so excited I can't even contain it! But I'm glad. I'm glad her and all my brothers and my dad all sacrificed 2 (or 1 1/2 years) to invite others to come unto Christ. If it were for any other reason, I'd be sad. I mean...I HAVEN'T SEEN MY SISTER IN A YEAR AND A HALF. But I'm glad it's because she was on a mission. I'm happy. Can you tell? P.S. Does anyone know why my blog paraphraphs all mush into one? I press enter and separate them, but they don't separate, unless I make it a bulleted list? I'm so confused.
