One More turn!

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Well these are two photos I figured you might want to see.
One Is me with Bruno the other is me Dancing the salsa!

Something i have learned this week is that roses and thorns grow together!
We have to experience the hard to learn to appreciate the good as well.
And most importantly we have to keep our priorities in check. Bruno taught me that lesson. We may want what we want but above and beyond everything else we need to remember why we are here and prepare for what the Lord has in-store for us!

Learning to follow by learning to lead WHAT!

Well as most of you know by now i have been taking dance classes for 3 weeks now. Well last night I learned an eternal lesson in class. :) Cool i know!
Last night was my one on one and last night took a twist from what i was used to. Last night the instructor made me lead! WHAT but i don`t even know how to follow yet. Well for two long hours i was grilled on how to communicate on the dance floor, needless to say after 30 min. i was beyond frustrated, but all he kept saying was don`t stop. And all I wanted to do was stop and beat myself up about how i wasn`t doing it correctly. But the thing is I`ll never learn how to get it right if i just give up on always getting it wrong.
THAT is kinda like life and striving to keep the gospel if we give up just because we CAN`T then we NEVER CAN. A wise man once said those who give into temptation and say you have no idea how hard it is, truly don`t know how hard it is, because they gave in. It is those of us who constantly fight, and sometimes fall, that pick our selves up and truly fight, and KNOW how hard it is.
As I have been in another country for the past 3 months I have had the chance to look at America with out being in America. I must say with all of the recent changes going on it has made me think a lot about the kind of place my children may live in :( At the same time i count my blessing for knowing what I know and knowing if I am prepared for those temptations and prepare my children we shall not fear!

So remember you NEVER can if you don’t try!
Con todo mi amor

Tender Mercies!

Well I have had a few things on my mind for the past week, and well to be honest I am still wondering a few of them. It is hard to prepared for ones future with out stopping to wonder what I might actually hold. Not only for them but for those they know and love as well. Well for the past week I have been actually a bit weak and sick, go figure the day i eat American food i get sick, but i am on a slow clime back up to normal. However i am still walking 2 miles a day which is very nice. I enjoy it a lot. I had dance class number two this Wensday and turns and hips are my two biggest problems go figure. But well bit by bit I'll get there.
Isn't that one of the greatest thing. Life really is a collection of all the little pieces of our life combined to make what in the end other are left to remember, or read :)
So what piece do you choice to keep looking at! For me up until this trip I focused my time on the pieces I didn't like, but I realized this week with out them the puzzle really wouldn't be complete. You know the bitter for the sweet! And well that really is true. Even when thinking of our future we have to be prepared for both the good and the bad, the sweet and sour, the sunny and dark days. BUT what I am learning to do is look at the puzzle as a whole piece!
Hope with me little by little we can look at the whole picture, of not only our own puzzle but the way we fit into others!

Mi amor para todo! Buenos Suerte
