On the spiritual side...


On my way back from Sunday morning church.
Located on campus @ Mount Lawley

Today's message: PERSEVERANCE

Goal-minded. Drive. Strength. Determination. Purpose. Dedication. Endurance. Devotion.
However, sometimes we are so set on the goal, that we forget about the challenges that got us there.
Our pastor asked us to think about the current olympic heroes and realize without perseverance and setbacks, their strength today, wouldn't have been as great.
The next time you go to complain about an obstacle in your day instead perceive it as a chance to GROW.
Some quotes to leave you with:
The road to success is dotted with many tempting parking places. - unknown
If one dream should fall and break into a thousand pieces, never be afraid to pick one of those pieces up and begin again. -Flavia Weedn
Keep on going, and the chances are that you will stumble on something, perhaps when you are least expecting it. I never heard of anyone ever stumbling on something sitting down.
-Charles F. Kettering
Cheers, a goal-minded gal

Check out the hottie w/the tanlines! Super jealous. 2 weeks in and it looks as though you're already having the time of your life!

I am sure you will be looking the same in a few months. Guess what!? I found some hiking trails around the area... pretty excited!
