Stronger

I am stronger than my past. I am stronger than my temptations. I am stronger than the things that bring me down.
 
                 I am unique, beautiful and funny. I am not going to let people bring me down. You are always going to have negative people in your life who are going to discourage you or hurt you, etc. Unless you choose to sincerely ignore them or just not really have much of them in your life.

People are going to let you down. They are just human, they are going to make mistakes.

REMEMBER THOUGH: You are stronger! YOU are courageous, beautiful and amazing!
(*And sometimes we give up to soon...)
                                                              God is watching over you and he is there for you and he knows all your struggles and mistakes and the stuff you have done, but he loves you no less!

This video is for all the moms out there:

The snow has just completely recently melted and I am so happy about this! Now I can wear shorts and go outside without a winter jacket! That was a ridiculously long winter. This has been an interesting year so far. To be honest I didn't know my feeling about the year when it first started like I usually do. Usually I get some kind of feeling of the year ahead of me so it kind of freaked me out when I didn't. I can't even start to explain all this year has brought me.

                                     I turned 16 in February and that is still just crazy to me! I am 16 for crying out loud! This is like the prime time of my life or that's what the movies make it look like! YC Alberta is in 14 days!! I am so crazy excited for this! YC is a huge Christian youth conference held in Edmonton, Alberta each year that has around 10,000 or so people attend, over 3 days. It renews me each year I go and makes me stronger.

Here is the promo video for YC this year:

I'm going to be an auntie soon! Ahh! I can't believe how this went by, it seemed to go by so slow waiting and now that it is almost here I can't believe how fast that was. I will write another post when my sweet niece is born and tell you all about her. :)

On my closing note I have been reading this book series "Diary of a teenage girl" by Melody Carlson. I strongly recommend it to any teenage girl between the ages of 14-19.
