Desribes Me Perfectly

Were you just kidding cause it seems to me
This thing is breaking down we almost never speak
I don’t feel welcome anymore, baby what happened please tell me
Cause one second it was perfect and now you’re half way out the door

[Chorus]
And I stare at the phone and he still hasn’t called
And you feel so low you can’t feel nothin at all
And you flash back to when he said forever and always
Ohh ohhh
And it rains in your bedroom everything is wrong
It rains when you’re here and it rains when you’re gone
Cause I was there when you said forever and always


Was I out of line did I say something way too honest
That made you run and hide like a scared little boy
I looked into your eyes; thought I knew you for a minute
now I’m not so sure
So here’s to everything coming down to nothing
Here’s to silence that cuts me to the core
Where is this going, thought I knew for a minute
but I don’t anymore

General Conference is a HOLIDAY!!!!



So growing up my mom made General Conference one of the most looked forward times in my entire life. I am not kidding. Every time General Conference time comes around I get so excited. I feel like I am about to experience Christmas and it makes me SO SO HAPPY! I love it! My mom would dance around the house doing a countdown to General Conference. She would make all sorts of treats such as homemade rolls and cinnamon rolls. She would buy candy and she would show us how to spiritually prepare for it as well. Saturday Morning session was always a big breakfast and usually CREPES, so so good. Then in between sessions on sunday (sometimes not till after the second session) she would make a huge dinner of Ham or Roast; these are all special items and things that we don't get all the time and that set conference apart. These temporal things showed me that General Conference was special and should be honored and put aside from the rest of the world. Now, I don't always have a crepe breakfast or a special dinner but I still look forward to General Conference because it is special purely because of the spirit that accompanies it.
