Moving and Magic

You know what I hate about moving? The fact that you have to physically move things. If one day I were to get super-powers...do you know what I would want? The ability to make other things fly. That way, packing would be a breeze, unpacking just as easy, and I would be able to put things on all the high spots on my walls without having to stand on something tall. See, my super powers would benefit everyone. Well, mostly me, but I would also use them for good. Somehow.

Princess

I feel as if I need to explain myself. No, I do not think I am royalty. Rather, my dad does. My daddy has called me "Princess" for...well, a very long time. And I love him dearly for it. But, since I have moved out, he has started calling my other sisters "Princess." ALL of them...all five. Of course, I still am the only Princess Megan...and so I created this blog to catalog my adventures. College, writing missionaries, eating Ramen Noodles and pretending that cookie dough counts as a food group...this is my life. And the occasional crazy adventure that goes along with it!

Sunshine and Rain

Yesterday I was driving up the freeway with a dear friend, rockin' out to Demi. As we were nearing the point of the mountain...I had an epiphany. It was rainy, and the storm clouds were rolling in from the west as the sun was setting. But, there was this break in the clouds where rays of sunshine were pouring down, and the cloud was beautifully back-lit. It made me think a lot about how our Father in Heaven is like the sunshine. Even during the stormy times, we can see His hand in all we do--whether through the rays of hope that penetrate the dark storm, or just knowing that he is there, guiding the storm to help us grow the most. So, I am thankful. Thankful that I have a loving Father in Heaven who looks out for me in the stormy trials of this life. Thankful that he sends the storms that will help me grow the most. Thankful that He loves me just for being me. Amen.
