Blessings Galore . . .

At times, it is hard to truly believe that I am really significant enough to have so many wonderful opportunities given to me. I just do what I am use to and what I've learned from my parents. I put my best in the work that is in front of me, I can never stand still if something needs to be done, and I will help anyone who asks. It doesn't seem like my actions should really be blessing me with such amazing opportunities. What makes me any different then others? But I know that Heavenly Father has blessed me with the talents I have and have given me the passion for technology - especially pertaining to the theatre and film industry - for a reason. I have seen a glimpse here and there of how I have been a part of spreading His gospel to the world. Every performance I do with a dance team is bringing the spirit to the audience. This film that I am working on is going to an amazing presentation of the early testimony of church members. With the Stadium of Fire, my example of living causes my friends to ask me questions about my beliefs so they better understand why I live the way I do. I am so glad for the many opportunities I am given and I thank Him every day. Today, I not only think of my upcoming trip to China, but I learned that though the film, I am getting credit and a scholarship for spring term. It touches me so much to know that the work I do - that seems so minimal - is seen as very important and having such a great impact on the people I work with. At times, I wish I could put so much dedication in academic studies as I do as a technician, but I am so proud of who I am. I cannot ask for everything so I will stick with my passion with theatre and film. My world evolves around it and I put all my love into the work I do. It will be difficult to pull away from it, but it will be a lucky man who can capture and hold my heart from the grasps of theatre and film.
