When evil is being done, is it right to react with evil?

NO! NO! and absolutely NO!!! You should not react with evil, because if you sit there and React with evil when evil is being done, then you are worse than the person who started the evil passing. Although if I was put in some situations then I’m pretty sure that I will not react with evil. If you react with evil then everything will end in tears, but if you don’t react with evil then everything will be hunky dory

NOBODY

Wherever you go there is always a person that is off by their selves or they are not talking to anyone and no one is talking to them. They are the nobodies. I have been the nobody many times. Some times we choose to be the nobody and some times we don’t. but the world calls them the nobodies because they think the nobody is not special and not worth their time. But I don’t think so. They are the kindest people in the room usually. They are understanding. They have the greatest ideas and some of the most interesting lives, if you can get them to open up. Not every one is a nobody if they are not joining in the games and activities. Not many of those nobodies are a nobody and the life of the party. But those that are, you would never know they are the life of the party unless you were with them all the time. Some people think they know what a nobody feels like, but they don’t unless they have been a nobody.

Is Compromise A Good Thing? Why or Why Not?

It can be depending on the circumstance and what you are doing. If you where to go and say you believe something and some one else believed the opposite and you make a compromise. Then that is not a good compromise. Now when my grandma was working for an insurance company, there was a company that had guard dogs and one of them got loose. It attacked a little girl. they came up with a good compromise that way nether of them have to go to court and spend money there. That is a good compromise. But in the end of that story the parents of the girl sued. So they did not accept the compromise.

Who do you think is a great leader? Why?

I think Hitler was a good leader but it was for a bad cause. He knew how to get people to see things his way. He knew how to take charge. He also had a clear vision of what he wanted to happen and he worked for it.
There is also the every day leaders like your parents, you, your friends and the people around you.
The greatest leader of them all is Christ. He was kind, loving, understanding and helped ever one. He also put the people in front of himself. He died for us and suffered for our sins. He is the best of all leaders
A leader can be any one no matter who they are or what they do,
it just depends on if they are willing to seize the moment.

So What Do You Think?

When you go to the bookstore or the library usually you take a book off the shelves and try to decide whether you want to read it or you don’t. Well what do you do to see if you want to read it? Do you look at the cover to see if it interests you? Do you just go down your favorite section and pull a random book and hope you will like it? Do you open the book to a random page and read a random line and if it is interesting you read it? Or you could look at the title and if it sounds interesting you read it. Also you might go to your friends and see what they liked and then read what they enjoy? Or do you read the back of the book to see what it is about? Well if you like the last one best then read this that is from a back of a book and tell me what you think of it.
The Farr family has just moved in to their new house in the middle of no where, where they’re trying to become self sufficient. There is a strange park across the street from them and then there is a forest that is huge with streams and rivers and the unknown. There are not many people who go back there, anymore. As they are playing, the ball goes in to the forest. Amy goes to get it, as she is looking, there is a strange sound and rustling in the bushes. She quickly grabs the ball. As she does, she swears she saw some one run and then duck behind a tree. Then later as they are playing in their house, Eric finds a hidden passage. A long time ago Amy has given up on miracles, ghosts and anything make believe, because it just isn’t real to her. Eric her younger brother has not given up on the idea yet but he still considers the idea that it’s not true. Is there a logical explanation, or are some of the greatest mysteries not all solved? If so, are some of them about to be discovered and solved by the Farr’s kids?

During the Sunset

The sun sets in the west and paints the mountains with many colors. As soon as the color reaches the mountains the angels appear, under the rainbow sky. They ride on their beautiful stallions to the west, to chase the sun. As the first stars appear they wish with every breath that they will make it to the sun. The whistling winds race past them, as they grow weary. As soon as the sun disappears behind the mountain, they are nowhere to be seen. For they rest on mounds, thorns, meadows and flowers. Some have lost their stallions as they traveled, so they walk. Some have lost their way, and some have joined them. No one knows where thy came from or where they’re going, or what they want. As soon as the sun rises and the lights touch the mountain they appear once more to follow the sun. As the stars and moon go to sleep and the sun wakens to light the world. But as soon as the rosy color has faded from the mountain once again they go and rest for the day, and watch the sun. But where ever they go they bless those around them. They have fought in all the good wars but are not what you and me would call wars. Some people call them the sun chasers, others light racers, others the rose walkers for they walk the earth when the sun paints the mountains a rosy color, and others angles of the earth. As for me I have no name for them. So in the end I will never know if they make it or not, but they bless those around them as they go.

Trees

When you go anywhere you see trees, now that is common thing to see, but do you think much about it. No, is the most common answer to this question, but is it the right answer. The dictionary says, "a woody plant that has a long main trunk and many branches. Trees usually grow quite tall." The dictionary tells us what it looks like and somewhat it feels like. What is the first thing you think of when some one says tree? Is your answer a type of tree, some thing that you can make money from, heat the house with or, is it something you don’t think about. Well if you don’t think much about it consider this, that trees provide some of the oxygen that we breathe. They keep us warm in some cases. They put a roof over our heads. They give us shade. They give us food. They give us a place to hide, To sit, To climb, To keep us safe. To float our boat and they give this world beauty. They give us every thing in a way. There is one tree that gives us the most precious gift of all and that’s the love of god. Now you may think that trees are not important but I do. I think that we are so blessed to have trees.

Letter about Speed Mitton

Dear Mariah
There is a sport that’s called speed mitten, have you ever heard of it? It is a cross between badminton and tennis, with some additional things of it’s own. The rackets are from tennis and the net is a badminton net. The birdie has a hole down the middle part of it. (Which is in the more ball part of the ball.) The game can also be played after dark. The hole in the birdie is for a small glow stick, that way you can see the ball. The rules are simple, if the ball goes out of bounds then the ball is out, if the ball lands on your side that’s the other teams point. The field is the same as the badminton field. The rules are the tennis and badminton rules. It’s for two and four players. That’s all you need to know to play the game.
P.S. you can buy a set on Ebay.

Blame Game

My family bought a game and it’s called the blame game. So one day I decided to read the instructions, to see how to play. The skill that you need is how to blame, the better you are at blaming the most likely that you will win. The game works like a tag in my understanding. What you do first is have a problem, for instance a bag was left out and your trying to figure out who did it. So you bring in the blame game. To play you take the big ball of blame and you blow it up. (the big ball of blame can be a ball that you bought at the store.) Then you blame it on some one and the ball goes to them. And they blame it on someone else and the ball goes to them. They can just throw it in someones room and walk off. How the game ends is when some one says I take the blame. And that’s the end.

Have you ever been to white sands national park? I have, it looks like a desert that some one had bleached. You can find things in the sand that people left there. When I went there I found a plastic easter egg full of money. It is fun to slide down the mounds of white sands. It all sure looks like snow. Through the whole thing I felt like I had large heavy stones in my many pockets. The two pockets that are at your waist on these pants, went clear down to your knees. When it was time to go we emptied our pockets to get all the sand out, because you are not allowed to take any sand home. Well when I emptied my pockets I still felt like I was weighted down so I emptied all my pockets again and I still felt weighted down. So I did not think anything about it till we got to the hotel. When I got there I was really surprised to find that I left a trail of sand. When I was getting into my PJs I found out that my two larger pockets where filled with sand. I realized that I forgot those pockets. So know I have a yogurt cup full of sand, that is from seven years ago.

How to Eliminate Stress

Have you ever had trouble with these things? You tend to get distracted, where did I put that, what should I write next, what should I do, what was I doing, have trouble thinking or what comes next? Well you are not alone. There are more then you can count that ask these same questions. I have found many solutions and I know that you have to. If you are saying no in your head, then you have found them but you just don’t realize it. If you are saying yes in your head, well done, you have found one or more solutions out of millions of them. I will tell you some of them that I know. Read, hum, walk, jog, play, laugh, sing, eat, cook, stretch, and one of the more famous ones sleep. But chewing gum seems to work the best for me. Now the reason sleeping is a common thing to help you with the questions above and others, is it relaxes you quite well. Now you may think why would relaxing help with those types of things? It is because when you are stressed your mind works slowly, when you are relaxed it runs faster because it has less to do. For example if you where on a old computer and you have ten things running then the computer slows down, that’s if you are stressed. Now if one thing is going then it runs fast, that it is relaxed. What helps you with the questions above?

Diet

I am trying to go on a diet that my mom is trying, it is called Daniel’s challenge. It is really interesting because it has a lot to do with the word of wisdom. For instance it talks about how the health board has ties with the food industry. It also says that when the food board came out with the food pyramid that the candy people threatened that if they did not increase the amount of sugar they would do something that would affect them. I don’t know what though. And then in the scriptures it warns you of conspiring men and that is what is happening. And if you look at the word of wisdom and the diet you will see they go hand and hand.

Tae Kwon Do

I used to take tae kwon do. One of my best friends that I know took karate and he used to show the other girls and me in my class, some of the things that he knows. When I found out that tae kwon has some similar moves as karate. In tae kwon do one of the things that they did was sparring and that is so much fun. My first master did not let his students spar until they where brown belts so I worked really hard to get a brown belt but when I had got my green belt we moved back to Utah where I met master Marlo. He had you learn sparring when you where yellow belt. (The first belt you get is white then it’s yellow.) so I happily signed up to go to his class.
Now I will tell you how to spar. (CAUTION DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME, IT COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY.) The fist thing is to buy special armor that is made for sparing and a mouth guard. Then you and your opponent puts it on. You play it on a pad that is red and blue.


There are three blue squares that are in the middle of the mat. the ref stands on one and the two opponent sands on the other and they face each other. The two opponents have on their armor two different colors on each side of their armor; the colors are blue and red. One of them would have it on red and their opponent would have blue. Now the ref puts his arm in between them and says something but I can’t remember, but I do know that it is sort of like, are you ready sort of thing. Then when he asks you, you sort of yell as loud as you can. (If you have watched any marshal arts and they yell that is what it is.) Then he moves his arm and the game begins, the ref also moves off the mat and stand a round the mat waiting for a penalty or some one to step off the mat. The rules are that you stay on the mat, you can’t kick them if they are on the ground and you can’t trip your a opponent or kick them below the waist. If you go off the mat then they take you to the middle of the mat and start you again. I do not know what happens if you break the other rules, because it dosn't happen very often. To get points you kick them on the big circles on there armor, that is one point for every kick. Depending on your belt and age there are head kicks, there are two different kinds there are light contact (that means that if you barely hit it with your foot, it counts, and if you hit it hard you are penalized.) And there is just regular (that means as hard as you want.) There are three judges that decide the points, they sit around the mat. Who ever has the most points at the end of time wins the game. One time I beat a black belt five to nothing.
