Don't Forget!!

"Miss Orem Mix and Mingle"

February 24th at 7 PM

at the Orem Friendship Center.

I am SOOO excited, its exactly ONE week away! See you there :)

And for your inspiring thought of the day, I chose a familiar story to illustrate my thought. "Cinderella was mistreated, humiliated, and finally forced to become a servant in her own house. And yet, through it all, Cinderella remained ever gentle and kind, for with each dawn she found new hope that someday her dreams of happiness would come true."

No matter our circumstances, we can all choose to be a ray of sunshine and have hope for the future...... :)

Valentine's Day Message :)

GREETINGS my lovely followers,

Valentine's Day is a week away, and I thought I'd write a Valentine's greeting from ME to YOU!!

Valentine's Day is a glorious day that celebrates love. No, not just romantic love but every type of love. If you don't have a special honey that you'll be spending this holiday with... no fear, because you are LOVED!! One thing that I have a firm belief in is that every soul is loved by so many people and more importantly by a Divine Being. If as Miss Orem the only thing that I have accomplished is helping ONE girl to know that she is loved and that she is full of worth, then I have succeeded.

In my own life I have had a huge awakening. I had depended so much on others to give me the love or validation that I thought I needed. In reality, my source of love and validation didn't come from any person, but rather it came from within.

So I challenge you all this Valentine's Day to do 2 things:

1. Realize that there is a SMORGASBORD of people who LOVE you.

2. Go and show love to someone else.... whether it be your mailman, mom, or a mean professor (haha...) LET YOUR LOVE AND LIGHT SHINE!!!!

As for me, I'll be spending this Valentine's Day with the most attractive young man in Orem... MY BROTHER!!!! :)

MUCH LOVE,

Miss Orem 2010
