Beginning
I've never been good at keeping up one of these blogs. I think that I have tried at least four times and every time I just feel like I don't have the time, or that its not cute enough... blah blah blah... Let me just say that I'm going to be better this time.
At the beginning of 2014 I made a goal that this year I would come to know Heavenly Father on a more personal level. I desired to know Him as He knows me... or at least make some progress in that direction. And so it began... the trials. I was to move to Provo Utah, a place that seemed just about as ridiculous as any for me to go. I had no money, no car, no place to live, and no job. I did however have a friend, Taryn, who let me crash on her floor for a few weeks. I finally got my butt into gear, found a job, got a contract, and got a car. Every paycheck seemed to just barely cover my needs.
I started dating a lot, but was disappointed beyond measure when all I found were LDS boys who were not living up to their covenants, influencing me in negative ways, or were just simply "non-committal". I dated a lot, ended up engaged around Easter and then called off the whole thing about a week later when I realized I wouldn't truly be happy for the rest of forever if I got married to the young man.
Every turn of the way I was learning to rely on Heavenly Father, He was always there, every step of the way. He was my support, the one I cried to. He was the one who provided for me when I had no other way to keep my head above the water. He was kind and patient, and he comforted me. He always pushed me to reach my potential but he never made me fall. I found my solace and my confidence in the Temple of my Father in Heaven.
I would really like to have this Blog be a way that I can share my life with others. Through trials and through heartache, and joy and personal victory I believe we all have something we can share with each other to help uplift and enrich the quality of our lives.
