The Climbing

"It was the most beautiful place under heaven or sky. Mountains and rock, trees, desert, and blue lake - all lay before him in exquisite detail. The air was so clear he felt he could see the end of the earth, the sky so deep blue, it seemed to merge into space. The view was entirely indescribable to those who were unwilling to pay the price, those unwilling to get out and make the steep mountain climb." "What was it, he wondered, that drove him to the summit? What was it that compelled him to climb the steep path, working his way up the dangerous trail? He couldn't answer the question; all he knew was that he felt it necessary to climb, to reach the highest point, to be on top of the world, to measure the distance, to see both sides of the mountain and the granite peaks all around. Being up there helped him, somehow, to understand the way things operated down below, reminding him that there was more to life than the daily grind."

5 Things I Miss About Rexburg,Idaho..:(

Hey Friends,

As most of you know I have been away from Rexburg, Idaho for 6 months! I miss Rexburg so so much! Somewhere along the way, the city...the people....the school became my home! I can honestly say without any hesitation at all that I was divinely sent to Rexburg,Idaho for! The Lord knew what he was doing...(doesn't he always?) The people I met there was not by chance and the experiences I have had with them have changed my life....My best friends all came from my time there! There is a saying that I KNOW most everyone has heard before...it goes something like this, " You don't know what ya got...until it's gone!!" SO TRUE!! So, I have compiled a list of things I miss about Rexburg....




1- My Kensington 207 girls! (You guys know who you are!)

2- Da Pineapple Grill, Jamba Juice, Fongs, Craigo's, and Ramires (I should probably have a separate food section..oh well) Rexburg has the best food ever---it's one of the biggest secrets in America! (And like 97% of my body fat) :D

3- My walks/runs down by the temple...Such a peaceful, reflective time!

4- The Walters Family...I miss cute little Dallin, Lilli, and Carly...(And sometimes, I miss you Beth! :)

5- Last but not least, I miss the feeling of being in the right place...at the right time...with the right people, pursuing the right things...It's been awhile since I have had that feeling!


Missing Rexburg something FIERCE,

Ashley D. Gossett
