Never give up!

Yes, I really do exist. I must admit, sometimes it takes Tia posting to remind me to post again. But hey, here I am, and I feel so alive! Today has been amazing all because I have followed Saygobedo's. I've been sick for about a week with a cold, and today my choir had a competition that I really wanted to participate in. Waking up I was almost sure that I would not be able to sing in the competition. I wasn't even going to bring my choir dress to school, I could barely talk, let alone sing! But the little voice inside told me to bring my dress, and so I did. As the day went on, I tried to save my voice, hoping I might be able to sing. Arriving at the competition, I was still unsure about my voice. As we were sitting listening to other choirs, I saw a girl in my choir sitting all by herself. I have always thought that this girl is really neat and cool to be around, I was so surprized she was sitting alone. I felt the need to go sit by her, and so I did. We started talking and I realized what a truly amazing person she is. We talked about so many things and I ended up making a really good friend. When our choir practiced before getting on stage, I could sing and I was amazed. We sang in our competition, and we received the highest score possible. It felt so good and I am so glad I could have contributed to it! I love Saygobedo's and it makes me so happy when they turn out. It makes me realize that the daily trials really are worth it when you see the blessings from them. I leave you with this quote:

“It may be that when we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work, and when we no longer know which way to go, we have begun our real journey.” - Wendell Berry


Sometimes we feel lost, and that's natural, it's a part of life. You never are truly lost though when you follow your heart. Never give up, you never know when it's going to be most important :)
