Hey y'all, what's up?! Everything is same old up here in Garden City. Wake up, go to work, play, go to sleep. It's a hard life ;) I've been workin' over here at the Adventure Center lately, just to switch things up. It's weird because it is never nearly as busy as Ideal and that can be nice and really boring at the same time.
So I wanted to share with you guys my "Real Life Realization." Coming up here to work was kind of a culture shock. I am fully aware that not everywhere I go is going to be filled with great LDS kids for me to hang out with and watch Disney movies with on a Friday night, but it was way different then I was expecting. When I came up here hardly anyone knew me and so I wasn't being treated any different than anyone else, which was weird. There was no filter with anything, so I got everything all at once.
I am not naïve enough to think that everyone who smokes, swears, drinks, etc. are bad people, I just don't want to get sucked into it all. It's crazy how much it actually does affects me. I mean I really do love a lot of people up here that are all different types of people and it just goes to show that what a person does, or does not do does not define who they are. I believe that there is good in everyone, sometimes you just have to dig a little deeper to find it.
Seriously the worst thing you can do is to prejudge people... I mean use your judgment on how involved you feel like you should be with them because you never want to get yourself into a rough situation, but get to know everyone before you make any type of judgment. You never know what's going on in someone's life and even if/when you do you don't know how they handle it. Love everyone and it'll make you and them so much happier!
