Complacency

The past few weeks have been stressful to say the least. 

I still can't get over how life works. 

I find myself in a rut.  

God changes that real quick. 

He put many options, choices, decisions in my path the last month. 

I have had many things weighing on my mind.

Once again I am put in my place. 

The only person, I can truly rely on for answers is Him.

I am so grateful for the tools I have been given: scriptures, prayer, priesthood blessings, and the temple. 

Recently my roommate and I made a pact to be better.

To live by this motto everyday: (see picture)

It's been HARD. 

Yet so rewarding.  

I have had so much fun the past couple of weeks. 

Every time I do something new

Every time I encounter a new experience

That is what brings me joy. 

This is how I want to live my life. 

And the time to start is NOW.

That's all for now. Cheers.

Mission Series: 2 years +friends

Two years ago today- February 20th. 

I left my family, my best friend dropped me off, and I put my phone in the mailbox for the next 18 months. 

Little did I know the impact these people would have on my life. 

Little did I know that serving a mission blessed me with the greatest friends I could ask for. 

I never thought in a million years that I would make friends from a mission. 

The other day, my friend Sadie, mentioned: Remember when you were scared to go on a mission because you didn't want to leave your friends behind? Now you have a lot more."

I was talking with my MTC companion who said it perfectly: "I was blindsided by the friendships I made. I never thought that would happen."

Those 12 days in the MTC were so great. 

I laughed with these people, cried with them, shared fears, played pranks, and grew with them. 

Now we are all home. 

It's so good. 

My life is forever changed.

2 years!

It's crazy that this happened two years ago!

Time sure does fly.  

I loved this day. 

So many special people around me. 

I love this gospel. 

The end.
