Gratitiude - A Sunday Thing

Ah March! It came in like a lion (all grouchy and mean), hung a round like a lion (with PMS), and is apparently going to go out like a lion (with irritable bowl syndrome). I am not grateful for March. Or at least its weather.

March has also been bad to the people in Japan.

And unsettling (to say the least) for the people of the Middle East and areas of Africa.

So let's think of some good things about March -

The earthquake and tsunami in Japan gave many people the opportunity show how much we care about each other. Ryan Higa  (one of my favorite people on YouTube) made this awesome video to help the people of Japan. It was so awesome that it was even aired on a tv show in Japan to cheer people up. So I'm grateful to people like Ryan Higa who use their talents to help people in need and motivate others to do the same.

Here's his video-



I started taking taekwondo classes. The really great thing about these classes is that everyone is so nice and encouraging. The teachers. The other students. Even The Boy and Giggles (who do not really like to go) manage to scrounge up some cheerfulness whenever we go to class. It's so nice to have people cheer you on even when you make a complete and total fool of yourself.

In March we celebrate our Irish heritage by eating yummy Irish food (I think that's an oxymoron). This year we had that great classic of Ramen and Dumpling Soup. OK, that's really a Korean classic but today we finally had Corned Beef and Cabbage. Hooray for being Irish. And hooray for Korean food on St. Patrick's Day because sometimes that's just how I roll.

And finally, I'm grateful that Giggles and I got to enjoy the General Young Women's Meeting for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Here's a video clip of young women sharing what they believe-



And finally, I'm grateful for my home, my family, and my faith -

And don't forget Super Junior!
