Day 10: Best

I believe Disney blog already did a list on this, but in my opinion I love Anna's hair. I especially love when she has the white stripe put there by her sister! I secretly want Anna's hair.

Day 9: Favorite Couple

I couldn't choose just one. I chose 3!
Aladdin and Jasmine
Rapunzel and Eugene
Kristoff and Anna

Day 8: Saddest moment

I have to say that the saddest moment that tops the cake is when Merida turns her mother into a bear. The movie Brave is amazing and if you haven't seen it you're missing out.

Day 7: Favorite Castle

Disney World's Cinderella's castle done up like Frozen! One day I will go to Disney world!!!!

Day 6: Prettiest Princess

This hard for me to decide. I've always loved Cinderella, but I recently have fallen in love with Rapunzel and Anna. I feel like I relate to both of them

day 5: kiss

I pretty much love Eugene and Repunzel

Day 4: Favorite Song

I might have a fondness for Anna, and I have fallen in love with this song!!! So, Do you want to build a snowman?

So, a friend of mine is doing this on her blog and I thought it would be cool to join her... Especially since over the next 30 days I'll be both in Colorado and Utah! :)

Influences

Lately I've been thinking tons about how other people continuously are influenced by things around them, and especially people around them. Each person you meet in this world influences you in some way. Even the waiter at the restaurant or the cashier at the grocery store has an influence on your attitude. If you have a waiter that is super rude, and doesn't care about you at all then you are probably going to an awful time at that restaurant. If your cashier is super sweet and helps you in all the best ways possible, and does it with a smile they probably changed your day in some way.

Now, I am going to repeat something that happened about a week ago at church. After church someone asked me if I honestly believe that everyone on this earth could be friends... My answer is and will always be yes. Why it is yes can get extremely complicated and I will try to explain it in the best way I know how...
First, here is what I wrote on facebook about it "Because God made each of us in His own image. He loves each of us the same, and it pains Him when His children don't get along. You may disagree with me if you like, but everyone on this earth has a purpose and every single one of us chose to come here with our brothers and sisters and be there for each other. Sometimes even the strongest soul needs a friend." I would like to add more to that. I want to start by saying that Christ had enemies or people that a normal person would not consider His "friends", but He does say that His friends had betrayed Him. Joseph Smith was told "thou are not yet as Job; thy friends do not contend against thee, neither charge thee with transgression, as they did Job..." The person also asked me if I had any enemies at all, or anyone that hated me. Straight up... YES, I do. Why they hate me? I will never know, but I also see it as their choice. Here's the thing... everyone that enters your life they enter to help you grow in some way.
 Things will continue to happen where people will continuously hurt your feelings, or make you feel like you are unwatned or unacred for. The thing to remember is that God will always love you, and He is the only one that matters...
Now, back to the other thing about how everyone on this earth can be friends. I do not believe in friendships being lost. I believe that we as people lose track of others because we have this "higher than thou" attitude where we think at times we don't need anyone to help us. (That includes God) However, I also believe that even those friends I once had that I don't talk to as much any more, or the people that don't think of me as "their friend"... I consider them my "friends". That being said, I also have a difference between friends and close friends. I guess all around I try to love everyone even if they don't love me.
I know many of these thoughts are super jumbled, but I also want to say that if my grandmother can forgive her exhusband than I can forgive that person that didn't mean to hurt me. Forgiveness is also (in my opinion) an influence that shows love and appreciation for others.

Lastly, I like the message that comes from the movie Frozen in the song "Let It Go"... Even I need to not let so many things bother me so much...

Finding my happy place!!!

The battle of depression is both a blessing and a curse. The key is to find the one thing that will make you smile despite all the dumb stuff that goes on. For me that key is serving others the greatest way I know how. Being a Louisiana girl I know how to cook some dang good food. So... My happy place is listening to some good southern music and cooking food and making the house smell freaking amazing. My happy place is going the extra mile to help others see the good that I see in the world. Yes, this world is cruel and mean and not fun at all, but the Lord loves each of us. When you find your happy place don't let go of it. Don't let others tell you what to do or how to feel. It is all up to you. You are the strongest person in the world. My happy place begins with a smile. It's not a recipe for disaster. It's a recipe of the best feelings you can ever imagine. Grow because of your happy place and affect the world!!!

My happy place isn't just found by serving others though. Sometimes I do need my me time. That comes mostly from the listening to music. When I was younger I would find my happy place in band class. All I had to do was play my trumpet and soon my smile would come back from no where. I could be so upset with people around me, but the minute that mouthpiece hit my lips I was extremely happy. I continued to play trumpet through college, and there was one semester (my last two) where I wasn't able to be in music at all. I noticed that it was extremely hard for me, and I wasn't as happy. I love music. Music is a bit of my life. I don't consider myself a very good musician, but I would rather sit in my room listening to music than go out with friends. And for me being an extrovert that's a pretty huge deal. Music is an influence on everything I do, and I usually can't stand silence. If I am silent and there is no music on then there is most likely something extremely wrong with me.

I encourage everyone to find that one moment, or that one thing that helps you in your hard times. I promise it will help more than you could possibly imagine.
