Sundays

I freaking love Sundays! They truly are my day of rest and I wouldn't be able to survive another week without the rest and help of Sundays! I'm able to go to my wonderful singles ward and feel the quiet spirit there and then come home to dinner with my family while I get to spend a few hours with them! Then I usually get to go to a wonderful fireside before spending the evening with my best friends for a game/movie night that is begun with reading the Book of Mormon. Simply wonderful!

Today I have the pleasure of going to a fireside at the Salt Lake University Institute (also know as the U of U institute) where Jericho Road will be giving a musical fireside. This wonderful evening will end with a movie night hosted at my humble abode... well that could change easily, it depends on the group's desires haha.

Obviously I love Sundays! A true day filled with family and friends. Sundays are a blessing in my life!

Say What You Need to Say

John Mayer's song "Say What You Need to Say" always seems to bring back one memory everytime I listen to it. My family and I listened to it as we were driving my older brother, Cameron, to the Provo MTC. He was leaving on his mission and we wouldn't see him for 2 years! I distinctly remember my dad saying, "well guys, I guess now is the time to say anything you need to say." Now I get the great pleasure to think of my wonderful brother whenever this song comes on the radio. Cameron has now been gone for over 18 months! He will be coming home on April 30, 2010! He has taught me so much over that past 18 months! We really do need to love and serve and remember the little things!

Here are the lyrics - with my comments :D

Take all of your wasted honor
Every little past frustration
Take all of your so-called problems
Better put them in quotations (LOVE this part, how poetic!)

Say what you need to say (8x)

Walking like a one man army
Fighting with the shadows in your head
Living out the same old moment
Knowing you’d be better off instead
If you could only
(This is totally something I do everyday. I love to talk all the time but you know when I'm dealing with something because I won't talk.)

Say what you need to say (8x)

Have no fear for giving in
Have no fear for giving over
You better know that in the end
It’s better to say too much
Than never to say what you need to say again
(People regret what they didn't say more than what they did say.)

Even if your hands are shaking
And your faith is broken
Even as the eyes are closing
Do it with a heart wide open

Say what you need to say (4x)

Say what you need to say (3x)

Say what you need to (4x)

Say what you need to say (4x

Say what you need to say (4x)

Say what you need to say (4x)
(Fade)
Say what you need to say (4x)


I know that I will always try and say what I need to say, because I have so many blessings in my life that I would be an ungrateful servant of my Heavenly Father if I didn't praise all that he does for me and the angels he sends me through my life.

Thanks to everyone to has helped me in any way, you don't realize how much your simple smile has helped me through a tough day. You are all my angels!
