Lately

Ever since November I've really started thinking about whether or not I should go on a mission. This is an experience that I want most in my life and I know I will be a better person because of it. The confirmation came to me a couple weeks ago as I sat and listened to my friend give his return home talk from his mission. I knew right then and there that I was going. This is something that I'm supposed to do and I know it. Some people might think I'm not going to make it or I can't do it...I've been told that by some people (mostly by one). Its my life and I'm going to take a stand for it..because in the end its my happiness that counts. I'm here to prove to people that I can do it and that I want to do it.

In other news, I'm going to be a bridesmaid in my best friends wedding in August! Which is going to push back my leaving date for my mission.....

"Make a wish and place it in your heart. Anything you want, everything you want. Do you have it? Good. Now believe it can come true. You never know where the next miracle is gonna come from, the next smile, the next wish to come true. But if you believe that it's right around the corner, and you open your heart and mind to the possibility of it, to the certainty of it. You just might get the thing you're wishing for. The world is full of magic. You just have to believe in it. So make your wish. Do you have it? Good. Now believe in it. With all your heart."

I've been thinking alot about where my life will be in the coming months. I'm now preparing to go on a mission and have my papers in April. But i've lately been thinking about dreams or wishes that I want to come true. The conclusion that I've come to is that you just have to believe that they can come true and believe in them with all your heart. Life is short and full of opportunity--so take the next opportunity that might scare you or make you anxious. Life is short and afterall, you only get one shot. Think of an experience that you want to see happen in your life and make it happen.
