Guys, let me just say, everything has a purpose.
This day has just been crazy for me. Yet, it's typical Lindsi. I forget things and have to pay the price for it; sometimes it's small, sometimes it's huge. Before I moved to college, I made the mistake of accidentally deleting all of my pictures off my iPod because I forgot that you had to sync it to the original computer before you sync it to a new one, great going Linds...
Today, I was out of town, down at St. George at my grandpa's house, spending time with my family and grandparents. I have an ID card for college, which allows me to access my dorm room and my bedroom and my meal plan; so without this card, I'm doomed. Well, guess what I lost today?
Yep, my ID card.
I don't know why it frustrated me so much, but I just couldn't handle the thought that yet, another thing, had gone wrong. Such a simple, stupid mistake. It makes me wonder what will happen when I mess up something that actually matters and influences my future? Maybe this is why I haven't had a real, quote on quote, relationship yet.
I'm not really sure, all I know is I learned a lesson today. God truly has a plan for all of us. We are supposed to go through mistakes and sometimes learn the hard way. Things happen sometimes and we just need to let it go and let it influence us and make it apart of our lives. I wish I had some pictures to put on here, but I was just doing homework and I wanted to post something today; so no pictures, I'm sorry.
But there is something to look forward to and appreciate in every day. I spent time with my roommate was we drove back to St. George trying to look around town for my ID card, I saw a outrageously beautiful sunset, I have the ability to be going to college and learning great things. The good definitely out weights the bad, even if it feels like, in the moment, hopeless.
Everything has a purpose; life is about living that purpose.

Some Poems
So this is a poem that I wrote about a year ago for my Creative Writing class last year (I miss it soo much). I don't remember what the prompt was or how I wrote this but It's one of my more successful poems. Because I also took a College Writing class and we shared our work in that class and got feedback. People that read it really loved it and I guess it's deep? haha I try to go for that. Sorry if it's depressing. Somehow I express my poetry through sadness? haha.
Looking through the glass.
A fragile, petite girl was swinging on her old swing set for the last ten minutes that she could; tracing her fingers up, down and through the cold chains.
She hasn't spoken in almost four days.
And she doesn't want to leave.
The moving vans just finished packing up. She lived here her whole life, but it was too painful to be here anymore. She didn't want things to change so fast.
She's terrified.
Her Daddy pulls up in the black car.
He walks towards her holding back tears.
"Have you got everything sweetheart?" he said in a gentle voice.
"Yes, but I'm not going back inside that house" she said her high, sad voice.
"Okay, I understand" he said softly.
"Are you ready to go?"
She looked up at him with tears of heartache rushing down her small, angelic face and whispered,
"Daddy, I don't want to go."
Tears erupt from his sad, blue eyes as he embraced his small angel.
They wept together in a sorrowful hug.
He carried her to the car and slid into the back seat as Grandpa backed up the black car.
The fragile, petite girl looked through the glass at the sad house.
"I love you Daddy, and Mommy" She breathed.
"I love you too, and Mommy" Daddy whispered.
He hugged her tighter as they drove to Mommy's funeral.
