Emotions

I wonder if our emotions work like the Chaos Theory in Physics sometimes. I feel a emotion, can't find the source, I am so frustrated over the fact that I can't control my emotions. I try to find a way to control my emotions, but it is hard. I try to find the reason about why I am feeling the way i do, and I can't. I wonder if I should just accept the theory of chaos and realize we may not understand and know everything. Those are my thoughts for tonight.

Intangible Things

Last night I was thinking about how Disney calls merchandise "tangible memories". I thought it was stupid how they changed the name, but then It made me think about the tangible and intangible things in our lives. There are so many tangible things that we give value to. That one Steve Madden purse I fell in love with has a lot of value to me. Why? Because it is pretty. :) My cell phone has value to me because that is how I keep in contact with my friends and family. I could go on and on about the tangible things I love to have, but the point of this blog is to talk about the intangible things we have.  I think that the value of the intangible things in our lives is much greater than the tangible. The intangible include: love, memories, pain, and joy. These things are hard to measure; we can't hold them in our hand. We can't say I have two ounces of love and one inch of pain. There is no measurement for love. I remember when I was younger reading the book about how m...

Its all about me.

I am currently taking a class called LDS Perspectives and Psychology. I have a good feeling about this class. Number one, we don't have final exams. We only have papers. Number two, I love his teaching style. I just love how his main objective is to make us think instead of think only with the textbook's point of view. I think the hardest thing about teaching is encouraging students to think but giving students textbooks to think. Think outside the textbook! This teacher makes you do that. We had a good discussion about altruism in the classroom. I have always heard about altruism and thought about being 100% altruistic. Is it possible to do everything for everyone else? A lot of theorist say that you do things for yourself but have altruistic moments. Is that true? I kinda believe that. Only Christ has had the power to do everything for everyone else on this earth. Ultimately, we will become like Christ and become completely altruistic. On this earth, I don't think it is...

Learning to Let Go

Yes, that is my lesson that I have been learning the last couple of months. Update on my life: I postponed my mission. I feel really good about my decision. I was planning on leaving to the MTC on July 31st. The best way to explain my decision is that life changes and curve balls are thrown at you. It was a very confusing time of my life as I was deciding whether or not to postpone my mission, but I made sure that I was making the right decision. I want to go back to school and continue my "career" or pathway to a career. I want to be a social worker and feel like I can serve God with my career. So, I am staying home. I have a testimony of the church and I respect all the missionaires serving right now. If I was 19, I would have a different outlook as a missionary. At this time, I feel like I should be spending my time in other areas of my life. And it is important to realize that sisters are not commanded to serve a full time mission. Member missionary work is important ...
