Soon to come!

I did some pictures for some people just before the end of the year, so I'll be posting those later because I NEED to be doing homework right now. But I just wanted you all to know what else is soon to come. I'm putting my hair in Dredlocks. I need half an inche more on the sides and I'll be ready to dred it up. So if you see me 2 months from now, you probably won't recognize me unless you read this post! STOKED!

Sweet!

So for Christmas, I got this wicked awesome rugby ball. It took a few attempts to get enough people to play a game but finally we got some out. We had ten people playing and they all fell in love with the game. Currently we are looking to get more bodies out there and start a rugby club down here in small EAC. Give us something more to do. But most of the reason why I am posting is to just inform you of where I am at in my life as of now. Physically I'm doing awesome, recovered entirely from inguinal hernia surgery. And am now attending a gym/rehab center. It's 15 dollars a month and it's AWESOME! I've been swimming every morning, Lifting weights and what not, so my body feels awesome. I could do better at eating, but I feel I'm doing really well. It's been months since I've looked at soda! Mentally, I've never been more alive in my life, my mind is so clear and though I still can have spurts of overwhelmedness I've never been more mentally awake in my life! And I'm sure that has a great amount of correlation with how my life has been going spiritually. Spiritually, I've laid everything out in front of the Lord. And thanks to my Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ, and the Atonement through Jesus Christ, I've taken control of my life through the guidance of my Heavenly Father. The Gospel is true, the Lord is great, and my life is meant to be lived through his will. Whatever he has in store for me I'll do it! And though in the past I have been hugely oppossed to such open and/or written declarations of loyalty; I feel that there comes a time in a mans life where he must verbalize/write down to show to others the sacridity of his beliefs. Talk to you all later!
Love ya!

Troubled by time!

Ok, so I don't have very long right now, but I just wanted you all to know I'm still alive. My roommate moved out and took the internet with him. So I haven't had any means of online interaction since my last post. My only online resources is wi fi at R and R pizza, which stinks because now I have to be around more pizza because of work and what not. Well, got to run to math class! I'll post probably tomorrow or maybe after math. who knows. Later!

Late night thoughts.

Is it ok to hide away our emotions, if the trials we face define who we become, should not the emotion we emmulate, through the trials we tackle or get tackled by, make us who we are? Should fear keep us from showing our true selves? If we wore emotions like we wore clothes, would friends, family, or strangers even be a necessary label we place on those we love or do not even know? Emotions cleanse us, free us, torment us, help us, destroy us, change us, and mold us. The best definition I can give is to manipulate an object to show certain traits or structure. Am I letting myself be molded by my emotions or am I pushing my Moldee away? How much emotion is appropriate to influence ones traits? If emotions were clear...I could see others and others could see others with every curved perfection or imperfection, every perfectly placed hair or imperfectly placed hair, every unattractive freckle or adored angel kiss, every discusting mole or attractive beauty mark, every disproportionate nose or pleasantly sized one. Who's to say which is which? Emotions can take worlds apart, but can't the same power this simple word contains create an artistic masterpiece, paintings, photographs, literature, dance, music, theatre, sports, meals, jobs, family, or marriages. Only in a world of dull do we find the emotionless.

Making fun!

I've been working at domino's the last week...It's ok, I miss Papa John's. I make better money at Domino's but I don't think the people change is worth it any longer. Oh well... I have been trying to type the things that come to me. As deep or shallow as they may be...I guess, since I've been watching the short clips on the bottom of the home page at LDS.org I should be giving thanks daily (One of the clip titles). So from this day forward I'm going to take at least 20 minutes to observe something that I'm thankful for. Today's subject is going to be food. I'm very grateful for food! I've been very blessed to always have something to eat. I've been limited on my food choice, but I've never not had any food. today I woke up and had the best eggs of my life today! And I thank Heavenly Father for his gift of chow! I can't wait for THANKSGIVING! Disclaimer: There is no pertinence to the subject matter and what was written.

Open Eyes!

Last night for FHE, our group went to a care home. I showed up late and tried to sneak in unnoticed. As I walked in one of the ladies across the room saw me and waved, so I waved back, I had never seen this woman in my life, she was very friendly though. All at once the lady next to her turns to her and asks very loudly, "WHO'S THAT?" Everyone was laughing and it was pretty darn funny. Everyone in the group was going around saying the things they were grateful for. And as I thought about each thing they were saying, I noticed A LOT of these women and men couldn't even speak. But that they wanted badly to say something. Each of them that shared, shared there testimonies with us. And I was happy to see that even a disabled older person though there time had passed for sports and running around, or even walking most of them. They still had very powerful and very simple testimonies of the gospel. As we were coming to a close we sang a few closing songs. And the most handicaped man in the room, Brother Innes, started to cry. It was very touching, and I was very glad that I got to see it take place. We then all had Ice cream sandwiches which was funny to watch everyone eat them. These people came into this world as children and now they are more like children than they had been in years. Which makes me not want to be old....Oh well, part of life I suppose.

The Best of Kendon

I'm calling this post The Best of Kendon, simply because these people and many more that I couldn't find pictures of are accredited to the BEST times in my life, who I am, and how my life is today. I'm very grateful for them and there love and guidance through my life. If you look at this and aren't listed I'm sorry, you obviously didn't do much for me....No just kidding, I probably just didn't find a picture of you. Thank you everyone for everything.
