Where to Begin

It was really hard to try and think of what to put for my very first blog post. It sets a mood, it creates a story you must tell, a character you must create. This character happens to be me, and my story has not yet been written, but I wanted to start with this. I am not a singer or song writer (as you will soon be able to tell) I'm a dancer, but this is my additional verses to a popular song in my church. Yes, I am a mormon. (Oh, I've always wanted to say that!:) My song is cheesy, it's kinda long, but it has a slight grace to it, kinda like me.


If the Savior stood beside me
Would I wear the clothes I wear?
Would I tell those secrets that aren't mine to share?

Would I be the friend or neighbor
The Lord would have me be?
If I could see the Savior standing nigh
Watching over me?

If the Savior stood beside me
Would I date before sixteen?
Would I listen to his commandments
So I could someday be a queen?

Would I read what others are reading?
Could I turn off the T.V.?
If I could see the Savior standing nigh
Watching over me?

If the Savior stood beside me
Would I be careful of my thoughts?
Would I put others down just to be in the popular lot?

Would I be less judgmental
Of others and of me?
If I could see the Savior standing nigh
Watching over me?

 If the Savior stood beside me
How would I spend free time?
Would he be proud of my treatment to that
family of mine?

Would I try to do more service?
Would I dance more modestly?
If I could see the Savior standing nigh
Watching over me?

If the Savior stood beside me
What kind of person would I reflect?
Could he look into my eyes and see that humble respect?

Would he see his little sister?
Would he hug me passionately?
For I know the Savior's standing nigh
Watching over me.
