Bottle It Up...

Remember how in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (the BOOK, not the movie), Hermione has this schweet (shh-VEET) blue fire that she keeps in a jar for cold days?

I was just thinking that there are so many things I'd like to bottle up for certain days...

FIRE for Logan winters
LAUGHTER for sad days
COMPLIMENTS for bad hair days
REASSURANCE for fat days
A gust of COOL AIR and a flurry of SNOW for blistering July days
WARM RAIN for days that were mean to be danced outside
A bit of SHADE for a day that's too sunny and hot
CONSOLATION for lonely days
ENCOURAGEMENT for gym days
MOONLIGHT for dark nights
MUSIC for any day
PRETTY SCENTS for those cow-smelling days 
(literal and figurative)
APPLAUSE for productive days
and
CONTENTMENT and HAPPINESS for every day

And then I thought to myself,

"You've got friends, family, an iPod, and the gospel...
My gosh, you're pretty much covered!"

(Who needs magic when you've got Heavenly Father on your side?)
