remember me.

Gandhi said that whatever you do in life will be insignificant.

But it is very important that you do it.

Our fingerprints don't fade from the lives we've touched.

Last night, I had the opportunity to go see the movie Remember Me.

It is the most beautifully portrayed movie I've ever seen.

It's highly unpredictable. And that's why I can't get enought of it.

Besides the fact that Robert Pattinson is easy on the eyes,

this is a movie that I would suggest everyone to go and see.

Today, I had a long day at the hospital. 12 hours. 12 hours.

But when I got home, I had my wonderful grandfather at the door

greeting me and welcoming me home.

He is so happy and carefree even in his old age.

We talked about anything and everything over dinner.

My grandfather suffers from a mild case of Alzheimers,

but he always amazes me with the stories he can remember.

We talked about everything from when I was a little girl to

him wearing a fanny pack on our Disney World vacation.

I hope that he never ceases to remember.

I can always hear my childhood stories from my parents,

but to hear him tell the stories makes me love the stories even more.

His memory is something that he clings to,

the thing that is familiar to him of the way life use to be.

I hope that he always remembers me

so that I will always be able to hear the stories that come straight from his heart.

lessons of life.

"Do everything readily and cheerfully-no second guessing allowed. Go out into the world uncorrupted, a breath of fresh air in this squalid and polluted society. Provide people with a glimpse of good living and of the living God. Carry the light-giving message into the night so I'll have good cause to be proud of you on the day that Christ returns. You'll be living proof that I didn't do all this work for nothing."

-- Phil. 2: 5-11

After tossing and turning all night, 6:15 came way too early.

Today was my first day back to work since I can remember.

Oh, and by the way, I work at a hospital.

I always dread going into work.

I probably have the worst attitude ever. EVER.

Things never seem to go my way, of course.

But give it time and I realize why I do what I do.

Every room I go in, I'm mistaken for a 13 or 14 year old.

The patients call me "little bit" or "peanut".

Reminds me of my grandfather. That's his nickname for me.

I love forgetting about my wants and needs for a few hours

and allowing myself to be a servant to those I come in contact with.

This might be the only opportunity they have to communicate with someone.

As much as I hate working, I love my job.

I love the smiles I get. I love knowing I made their life a little easier.

Today was a life lesson.

I am passionate about helping others. I know God has a huge plan for me.

Growing up, I always had everything I needed and more.

I had my parents and grandparents wrapped around my little finger.

But sometimes it's not about that at all.

Life's journey should be about helping others and every day going beyond your

comfort zone to use the abilities that God has given you.

Days like today made me thankful for my family.

Never take a single day for granted and be a servant to everyone

you come in contact with. You might be the one thing they need the most.

here goes.

I doubt I will be very good at this.

In fact, I know I won't be good at this at all.

From this point on I get to share my little life adventures with my fellow bloggers.

But first, you should know a little more about me, right?

I mean, you will get to know me pretty well from the posts I will publish later.

Well, here goes.

These are my wonderful parents. Who do I look like? Your guess is as good as mine.

This is my sister. One day, I want to be just like her.

These are my best friends. I don't know what I'd do without them.

And finally, these are my college best friends. Life is always better whenever they're around.

I am thankful for the people I have in my life. God has truly blessed me.

Now that you've met my family and the main people in my life,

I can't wait to start sharing my life adventures.

This is going to be lovely.
