Why I still love life (despite having too much on my plate.)
1. I love people. I love friends, being a friend and most of all I love my family. I love being a good example to my younger siblings and helping them grow and progress to becoming great and amazing individuals.
2. I love the gospel. I love its good news. I love knowing I can feel my Savior's love everytime I do things that draw me closer to Him.
3. I love the gospel. I want to shout with joy its message of happiness and peace. I know that I was put in my position not just as a blessing, but also as a platform from which to leap and bless the lives of others. I pray for the Spirit to replace my fears with trust in the Lord in order to do bless those people. I hope I never take for granted my blessings and the gospel, through which they come.
4. This was a lot more detailed and powerful the first time it was written. Too bad Blogger can't retrieve unsaved drafts, as Word does. After minutes of frustration...oh well.

Why I need to simplify my life and take a few things off my plate.
1. I've noticed that when I stretch myself too thin, and try to do many things really well, I do all those things poorly. I'd rather do a few things and make sure I give my best effort to each area.
2. If I become Student Body President, I want to rock the house! I don't want to be someone who's too absorbed in his own life to worry about others. The job of the SBP is to worry about others! He or she is the person who should know and be a friend to everyone (the student body!)
3. I'm not relaxed any more. I'm only still in high school, and I want to enjoy myself! When I try to do it all, I'm always worrying about something I need to be working on. I want to enjoy my senior year, while I'm still a kid!
