I AM SO EXCITED! http://www.readthescriptures.com/ IS SUCH AN AWESOME THING! EXCEPT WHEN I TRAVEL, I CHECK EMAIL DAILY. I HAVE BEEN TRYING 2 READ THE SCRIPTURES DAILY & THE RS & SS LESSON WEEKLY, VIA AUDIO AT LDS.ORG, BUT I’VE DONE HORRIBLE–EXCEPT W/THE RS LESSON, BECAUSE IT’S EMAILED 2 ME!

THIS LET’S ME READ ALL THOSE THINGS VIA AUDIO THROUGH EMAIL REMINDERS, OR ONLINE (WHERE THERE’S AUDIO, AS WELL AS ENLARGED TEXT, AS WELL AS THE CAPABILITY 2 WRITE NOTES, & HIGHLIGHT TEXT)! I CAN PICK WHERE 2 START, WHEN 2 STOP, ETC. THEY SEEM 2 HAVE COVERED EVERYTHING!

THE 1ST DAY THAT I WAS CONCIOUS IN THE CLEVELAND HOSPITAL, I WONDERED HOW I COULD READ THE SCRIPTURES AGAIN. IT HAS BEEN A CONCERN 4 ALMOST 5 YRS., AS I’VE BEEN TOLD I SHOULD READ THEM DAILY. SO IMAGINE MY EXCITEMENT IN FINDING THIS WEBSITE!! I WANT 2 TELL EVERY1 ABOUT THIS GREAT RESOURCE!

KNOW WHAT ELSE? I ONLY LEARNED ABOUT IT BECAUSE OF THE PROGRAM (READ PLEASE) THAT I MENTIONED IN THE LAST ENTRY ON MY BLOG! NORMALLY, I’D HAVE SKIPPED THE ARTICLE, OR WAITED MONTHS 4 IT 2 BE READ 2 ME!

I’VE BEEN INTRODUCED 2 THE MOST MARVOLOUS PROGRAM, WHERE AS LONG AS I CAN COPY TEXT, I CAN PASTE THE TEXT INTO THE PROGRAM, IT’LL AUTOMATICALLY CHANGE THE FONT SIZE (I COPY SMALL FONT, PASTE IT IN, & W/NO ADJUSTING, THE FONT IS LARGE), READ 2 ME, & HIGHLIGHT THE WORD IT READS, SO I CAN FOLLOW ALONG! I HAVE MANAGED ALREADY 2 READ ABOUT 60 EMAILS, BLOGS, THE “FINE PRINT,” CHURCH STUFF, ETC. I AM MORE EDUCATED ABOUT THE WORLD AROUND ME, AS STUFF I ONCE PASSED ON, SINCE THERE WAS NO1 2 READ 2 ME (& I DIDN’T WANT 2 WAIT, & ADD IT 2 MY ENORMOUS “2 DO” LIST), WAS PASSED ON B4, BUT ISN’T NOW!

IT STARTS, STOPS, & PAUSES. U CAN ADJUST THE VOICE, READING SPEED, & FONT SIZE. READS SHORTHAND (“2″ IS “TWO”), MONEY, ETC. TYPOS R STILL TYPOS, BUT U CAN REALLY ENLARGE TEXT, SO U C THE TYPO, & CAN FIGURE IT OUT.

STILL HELPS 2 RECIEVE MANY EMAILS ENLARGED BY FRIENDS, BUT NO LONGER WILL I HAVE A LARGE STACK OF EMAILS, NEEDING 2 BE READ 2 ME, ONLY 2 DISCOVER A MISSED EVENT OR BARGAIN! THIS OPENS WORLDS 4 ME, & HAS AGAIN CHANGED MY BALANCE OF TIME, AS I CAN NOW READ BLOGS, THE “FINE PRINT,” ETC. & BEST OF ALL, IT WAS FREE (BUT THERE’S A VERY INTICING UPGRADE, 4 SOME1 LIKE ME– A $50 UPGRADE, & IT FAST FORWARDS, REWINDS, STARTS READING
ANYWHERE, IS LIKE A 2ND TOOLBAR, ETC.). IT’S EASY 2 INSTALL. & THERE’S NO HARM IN TRYING A FREE PROGRAM!

I THINK ALL STROKE SURVIVORS SHOULD BE AWARE OF THIS–C THE RT. SIDE OF THE PG.

IT’S A GOOD SIGN THAT I HAVEN’T POSTED…HAVE A LOT WAITING, BUT IT’S DIFFICULT 2 FIND THE TIME—I HAVEN’T MASTERED THE NEW BALANCE (I’M SLOWER & NEED MORE TYPING TIME, BUT ENJOY FAMILY TIME MORE–ESP. SINCE I CAN TALK 2 EVERY1, NOW).

I USUALLY TAKE PARTS OF THINGS I’VE WRITTEN (IN EMAILS, MY JOURNAL, MY COMMENTS 4 CHURCH, ETC.) 2 HELP TYPE A POST (HELPS MANAGE TIME), BUT DOESN’T HELP IF MY EMAIL IS 2 PERSONAL, OR DISCIPLING A KID, & I’M NOT FINDING TIME 2 TYPE MY JOURNAL, ETC.

SO, HERE’S FOOD 4 THOUGHT. These quotes will give you energy to try a little harder or just keep at it, to help you remember why you’re here and who you want to become:

You are the only person on earth who can use your abilities.
-Zig Ziglar

Life is thickly sown with thorns, and I know no other remedy than to pass quickly through them. The longer we dwell on our misfortunes, the greater is their power to harm us.

-Voltaire
Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the
end of the day saying, “I will try again tomorrow”.
– Mary Anne Radmacher

“even if you feel that your dreams and goals have washed out in the past, build them up again. Each new day is a fresh start, a clean slate, a new chance to change, improve, and try again. In the very process lie opportunities immeasurable for growth and good fortune. “
“Music and the Spoken Word,” from “Beginning Again”

“We can be blessed with wisdom when we understand, in very personal ways, that on the other side of suffering is a depth of feeling, a perspective on life and love that we might not otherwise have known. :
“Music and the Spoken Word,” from “Unexpected Blessings”

“Every great endeavor starts small, sometimes as little more than a dream… But even small beginnings, after all of the roadblocks and the dead ends, can lead to great things when they ride on the wheels of a dream.”
“Music and the Spoken Word,” from “Big Dreams on a Small Island”: (http://www.musicandthespokenword.com/messages/):

I gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which I must stop and look fear in the face…I say to myself, I’ve lived through this and can take the next thing that comes along.

-Eleanor Roosevelt
