I want to do something fun. I want to go somewhere with a group of friends, leaving all uncomfort and ockwardness behind and just go on a beach listening to the waves and playing sports in the warm sand. I miss those days when I was young, and all the kids in the neighborhood would come out, usually on a spring evening, and we played everything our minds would carry us out to. It didn't matter who you were, where you came from, or who your parents were. Because no kid cared about that stuff. They just wanted to have fun and play a game of kickball or something. When I was young, "not included" wasn't real. Everybody was involved in the game. Well, if they wanted to play. Maybe things have changed for me because i just grew up. And so did the kids i used to hang out with. Things gradually changed. Boys had cooties one second, and they were attractive the next. Disney isn't really disney anymore. It's more like throwing actors/actresses into a television show and getting a lesson out of it, Oh did i mention those actors/actresses are singers too!? I'm not going to fall for it. You either be a singer or actor. You can't really have a passion for both. Well, i'm not really going to get into that right now, but. You know what i mean, like the world changed. When I look back on my childhood memories, it brings me comfort,happiness, and Peace. Maybe it seemed stupid at the time, but now i want to go back. But i know it's silly to think of that now. Someday I will go back to that peaceful time in my life where everything is good. I don't know when, but i will. ;)

Consider the Lilies

Image
"Consider the Lilies How they Grow: they toil not, they spin not..." Luke 12:27 I want to share an experience I had today. This morning I woke up feeling sick and the rest of the day was just kind of blah. Sometimes I have days where I feel like I don't have a place in the world and I forget my value. And today was one of those days.  I got home and knelt down to pray to Heavenly Father. It's kind of one of those pleading prayers that you just really really need him to answer and you just want to know that he is there and listening. Well, during the prayer, I could feel comfort flood my body (also not the first time I have received his spirit like that). So I knew that was his initial connection to me to show me he was there, listening. And then I got an idea to go watch those Bible Videos that the church comes out with. I cannot describe the love I felt from Heavenly Father as I watched them. Every word Christ was saying was everything I needed to here.  ...

Spring Semester 2017

Image
After the mission, there comes a time in your life where everything starts to flow back together again. For me, that was the Spring semester of 2017. Just 4 months off of my mission. These times are crucial. I do remember how hard it was for me to find a job and how difficult the social scene was back at school. I was not only a weirdo around my friends (though somehow still the same) but dating was also a struggle. There's this idea (especially now in our culture) that every return missionary NEEDS to get married 6 months to a year after their missions. Now, I applaud those who can actually manage to make that work. So, in some weird way, I thought that dating would be fairly easy, right? Wrong. I actually managed to get zero dates fall semester. Was I doing anything wrong? At first, I thought yes. But what I learned from this experience of not dating was that the Lord placed me in the time that I needed to be with the people I needed to be for a reason. I needed to get th...

Having Confidence No Matter What

Guys, let's be honest, I don't think anyone (me most of all) has mastered this whole confidence thing. So I'm not writing this out of my own experience of having this amazing confidence, but what I have observed from other people and what I have learned as someone who grew up being not confident in herself. Well, I think everyone struggles or has struggled with confidence issues at one point or two in their lives. If you haven't, WHAT IS YOUR SECRET AND HOW DO YOU EVEN. I want to address two parts of confidence in yourself. 1. Having confidence in what you are capable of. Which brings me to this quote: "The quickest way to acquire self confidence is to do exactly what you are afraid to do."-Anonymous  I LOVE this quote because when I read it, I automatically thought of all the times in my life I wanted to do something, but I was too afraid of either rejection or it not working out or something. Our biggest problem, the reason why we aren't confide...
