Heaven is it

In A Perfect World

Life is not about finding true love, having the most money, looking the best, or being everything you're not. Because true love has already been given by God. Why spend your time over money, when we have a King richer than the world itself. Looking your best isn't worth it, knowing God created you the way He wanted you to be, in such beauty. By being everything you're not, that takes away the meaning of being yourself in God's eyes.

Life is about living each and every day glorifying God.

We are constantly wishing for a place where there is not crying, fighting, lying, drama, sickness, diseases, suffering, or anything that we see as negative here on earth, but that's what is so crazy. God has already made a place that is so perfect beyond what we can even wrap our minds around that is filled with nothing but pure happiness, where there is nothing but perfection. A place better known as Heaven.

When we are given a day here on earth, it is only another opportunity for each one us to lead someone to Christ, or even do the simplest act of kindness by showing them a Christlike love that God placed in us. It is only another chance for us to tell others of different backgrounds, lifestyles, and interests about the real truth behind life. That life is short, life is confusing, life is beautiful, life is scary, life is rewarding, life is given to us by a man who died to know each one of us. That the man who died to know us took our place when we could not as sinners. That the sin we each carried could not be repaid, but that man paid our debt. That the sin weighted on our shoulders was washed away and placed on that man. That man is titled with many names: The Creator, Sustainer, King of King, Lord of Lords, Healer, Author, Comforter, but better known as Jesus. Our ONE true and perfect God, who in a perfect world that we only hope for, He has already created. If we wish to be in the perfect world He has created, we must hear from the word, believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, realize that we are sinners and confess that we are. From there, our eyes will be opened to a new meaning for life, and that our lives should never be lived the way that they were before. In a perfect world, everyone comes to know Christ.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
