" I never realize how much I like being home unless I've been somewhere really different for a while. "-Juno Mac Guff

I had the week from hell. It was terrible. I was everything I hated and hated everything around me. I live in Price, America and there is something about living there that you can never explain to others. Your life is like photograph and everyone else is in a motion picture. I'm not here to discuss how much I hate Price because we wouldn't get anywhere. You see when your life becomes a photo, you see all the little details and flaws in a new way. You are able to change and grow. I don't know how to slow down. My good friend Diana laid it on the line.
"Grace, you're a city girl."
 That part of me is never going to change. I love the city. At the same time I know that without the slow pace that my life is at, I wouldn't be finding myself. Home wouldn't be this beautiful. There will come a day where everyone will have to step away and get out of that comfort zone. Maybe you will have to leave to see it. We all have to find a "Price". Something that slows us down, makes us try hard and figure out what we want and how bad we want it. We all need to look at the photo. The film still. Look at what is changing the future of our film. I hate my life sometimes. It's arduous and I lose patience with myself  everyday. Without all of this, the College of Eastern Utah chapter of my life, I would be weak. God gives us strength at our weakest moments. I'm learning that He wants me to grow and struggle. I'm going to win this.

Romans 8: 38-39


 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able toaseparate us from the blove of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Love wins all in the end. Whatever you love, whether it's God, family, Star Wars, let it win.
