Happy Father's Day!

This post is short and sweet. Today is a important day. Today is Father's Day.
I love the Image below because it describes my Dad.
On the Image, does any of the words describes your Dad in any way?
Dad if you are reading this blog post;
"Dear Dad,
Happy Father's Day! I hope you will have a good day today.
Don't allow any little things let you down on this day.
Thank you for always being my Dad.

I love spending some time with you. I appreciated everything that you do.
I love you heaps and please don't ever forget that."

I loved a video that is about Father's Day on www.lds.org and I would like to share it with you all. Here's the link below;

Have Faith

I encourage you to think about the following questions;
What is the meaning of Faith? What does it mean for me to have Faith?
What does it mean for someone else to have faith?
I love a song called "Have Faith by Elizabeth South."
I think the song talks about having Faith in God when I listen to the song.
If you haven't heard of the song before, I encourage you to listen to the song.
Here's a video below of the song; I hope you will enjoy listening to the song.
When we have down times, we need to Have Faith to get through those times.
When we are driving anywhere from Home, we need to Have Faith that we will get to other places that we need to go to safely.

In closing, I would like to share with you a part of the lyrics that I loved while listening to the song. That part was "If we will reach out to Him, He'll hear our cry and though things may not be so good. He'll work it out and though we may fall, He'll lift us up."

Stay tuned until next time.

Dare to Stand Alone

This post is based on a October 2014 General Conference talk that I loved. 
It is called "Dare to Stand Alone by Thomas S. Monson."
What does Dare to Stand Alone means for you?
What does Dare to Stand Alone means for someone else?

In our daily lives, we do have times when we felt alone. 
In our daily lives, we do have times when we feel like no one is listening.
I liked President Thomas S. Monson's experience at the Navy when he dared himself to stand alone. Why can't we stand alone if we aren't doing it already?
I remembered when I was High School, I kept my Standards High, I was always proud to be a Latter-Day Saint/Mormon and I stayed strong and true to what I believe in.

I remembered answering some of the questions that my non-member friends had when I was in High School. I knew my non-member friends was watching my behaviour, attitude and actions in class. 

I have so many experiences when I dared to stand alone. Here's a few experiences when it makes it clear that I am a Latter-Day Saint/Mormon.

When I was doing Certificate II in Hospitality, some students noticed that I didn't drink Tea and Coffee. I remembered a student was reading along of a Text book and she mentioned "Latter-Day Saint/Mormon" and asked me "Isn't that what you are Megan?" I said "Yes." 

When I was doing Certificate II in Retail, I was asked "Megan, are you a Mormon?" by a student. I was happily to say "Yes I am."

When I was doing Certificate II in Workplace Practices, my class listened to EFY 2012 CD that I bought into class one day. My teacher asked the students to bring appropriate music for the whole class to listen to instead of having some students to listening to their own music for free time.

Has there been a time when you have needed to stand alone in doing what you know is right? Share your experience if it isn't too personal below.

Stay tuned until next time.
